[QUOTE="lwh723, post: 1798765, member: 10241"] I agree with others that have said 209 isn't the issue. I own Arrowhead and sell the LRMP kits. Is LRMP better, yes, but if you've got horrible accuracy issues, it's generally not the primer that's the issue. Bullet/sabot to bore fit is probably number one culprit. You don't want something that just slides down the barrel with no resistance. The harder you're pushing a load, the tighter your fit should be. Using a non-mag primer with BH209 is another recipe for poor performance. Honestly, you can get decent accuracy at 100 yards with a gun that leaks a lot. Your velocity spread will be high and start to bite you at distance. Where the leakage really gets you with BH209 and Smokeless is if you're hunting cold weather. Combine cold with leakage, and that's a really good recipe for a misfire. [/QUOTE]
