209 x 17 muzzle loader
« on: July 09, 2012, 01:16:54 PM »
I have a N.E. 20 gauge that I want to make into a 209 x 17 muzzle loader. I found 17 liners and want to tread it into a 20 gauge plug and drill the back out to except a 209 primer. I can not find a steel 20ga plug. So I want to make out of a brass plug. Like to make it in to a breech load. Does anyone know where to by one or have it made? And has anyone out there ever build one before?

There is that guy in Alaska that makes inserts for shotguns of different calibers. He can at least provide you with a 22LR sized one that you can modify to take the 209 and the liner. Im not sure if something like a 32 Cal. CF one might get you closer, easier; check out the liner OD, threads to use and the seat needed for the 209 vs the cartridge specs.
