fluffy,
That's the conversion for the push in breech plug right?  Is it possible to get a photo posted?  I want to see what it looks like.

thats correct. Going to the range today. will get some pictures.

Actually, the one I bought screws in place of the nipple.  The point is that the percussion caps cause corrosion of the firing pin hole (at least on mine) causing things to freeze up.  The 209 doesn't do that since the "fire" is contained.  Unless you live in a open ignition state (I do) changing to primers isn't a big deal.  In an open ignition state, you can bore a hole to let the rain get in and foul your cap.  Oh well...

yes, its the one that replaces the #11 nipple. I load for shotgun, so I've got several hundred primers laying around. figured it'd be a better option, that and I don't want a FTF. Want the hottest spark I can get in there.

Okay, lessee if I remember this all now... 
 
One can buy a Huntsman push in breech plug that uses the 209 shotgun primer; not the breech plug, but an adapter that screws in to replace the nipple.
 
Other then the ignition medium it is no different then the existing breech plug; exact same plug
 
The extra "fire" is not necessary for the BP I use; not sure what you use, I use Pyrodex RS
 
Said plug would allow me to try that new propellant (what is it?  Black something 209?    ) in my huntsmans.
 
Is that about it?     Sorry guys, still on my first cup of coffee and the caffeine hasn't cut through the senility yet!
