[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 2116762, member: 10178"] That "open style ignition" requirement. What exactly does that mean according to the regulations of the state you will be hunting in? To me that would mean the old exposed side lock etc. hammer and nipple cap lock. I have an old in line Knight T-Bolt Mag 50 Cal. that originally was set up to use either a regular cap or musket cap by changing the nipple. You could see the cap when the straight line bolt was cocked back. I found a conversion kit to switch over to use 209 primers with the red plastic inserts. You can still see them when the bolt is cocked. I still use this rifle and killed two bucks with it this past year. It is scoped. I now use Hodgdon 777 FFG 80 grs with a sabot and .452 diameter 250 gr Hornady XTP pistol bullet. WICKED ON DEER. [/QUOTE]
