    Westlake Taurus Conversion

    I was wondering what sort of results people have had with the Westlake Taurus nitro muzzle loader ?

    Are there any issues with the bullets moving under recoil - I'm assuming there is no ring of lead shaved off when seating so just wanted to confirm that the heads are nice and tightly seated.

    What sort of accuracy are people getting ?

    Are there any issues with light strikes ? When I had a Taurus LBR it wouldn't reliably ignite anything other than Federal primers

    I have never had problems with the bullets moving under recoil.

    I'm using Speer hollow based wadcutters, and it shaves off a tiny amount of lead when loading the bullet into the cylinder.

    Never had a problem with light strikes, I use Cheddite primers, without any problems, I did try Remingtons which were ok, but CCI's didnt seat right, so could not recommend them.
