hornsurgeon,
You have to have a sealed breech plug to properly ignite the BH 209. I believe the breech plug upgrade is discussed in one of the sticky threads at the beginning of this forum. The factory breech plug with the plastic primer carriers will not work. I have not shot the Hornady FPBs but others have reported very good accuracy. Always, start with a low charge and work your way up. My own experience with bore diameter bullets and sabots has indicated that 80 grains give or take a little are the most accurate. At $30 per 10 oz., lower weight charges with BH209 is a good thing.

Why be difficult, when with a little extra effort you can be impossible?
