[QUOTE="arch408, post: 3093588, member: 59036"] I used Knights LR primer adapter in my Knight MK 85 .54 calibermany years age. It seems to be very reliable. I never had any misfires or hang fires with it. I used it to kill an elk with it in 2001. I haven’t used it since, having never been drawn for a muzzle loader hunt since then. One thing I liked about it was that it seemed to seal the nipple better than percussion caps. I have not used it on more recently developed black powder substitutes, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. Actually, I use shot gun primers in my Encore .50 caliber using belted or saboted bullets, but if I was restricted to cast bullets, I would use the “old” Knight MK 85 with the LR primer. [/QUOTE]
