[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 2239332, member: 5219"] I was not that familiar with the early Rem ML. It looks like they discontinued making it in 2005. Read an article by Randy Wakeman that mentioned: "The supplied weather shroud is a tube that fits over the end of the bolt, then ensconces the primer nipple. Currently, the Remington WebSite states [I]"[B]NOTE:[/B] The Model 700 ML Weather Shroud is [B]not[/B] intended for use with 209 primers."[/I] This information has not yet filtered into the instruction manual , but it is good advice. Firing the rifle with the weather shroud in place directs most to the gas right into your face. If you must shoot a Remington 700ML / MLS with the weather shroud in place, the #11 cap ignition is the least painful option. "A 700 MLS was test fired for this article. With the feel of flaming sand impregnating itself into my face, this gun truly is a pain to shoot." I looked into the weather shroud and discovered there is a metal replacement. Didn't see any vent hole but picture could have it on other side. Company says: " helps protect scope from blow back discoloring."
