Thank you Mr Tom. I called Winchester and a tech there stated that they had recently changed their 209 primer packaging from blue to red and white packaging.
https://www.prbullet.com/nef.htmLooking for a new breech plug for my NEF huntsman. 7/8" diameter?
Mine is a thread in and uses the orange plastic holder for the 209 primerI have some H&R BP barrels for the Handi-Rifle. Some of the older breech plugs just slide in with an O-ring to seal it, while others thread in - which do you have? Also, the older ones used a #11 cap, hence the firing "pin" was flat and significantly larger in diameter than the regular Handi-Rifle firing pin. Later on H&R (or maybe they were NEF by that time) switched to using a 209 primer to ignite their BP rifles - the latest ones also had a plastic holder for the 209 primer.
