You can use 209 primers. The Vari-Flame is the same dimension as a 209 primer. The stock is not exactly like the Bergara B-14 HMR. The Paramount stock has a little storage area under the hinged floorplate called "The Trap Door Tool Box".

Nice scope

Unless they had custom modules made the Variflame is based on 22 hornet which is larger than a 209.
Change over to these 223 case head based modules and you got a winner. BUT they are about $5 a pop. These wont leak and can handle loads in the 50Kpsi range. You will never make that kind of pressure with BH209 even with 150gr by volume and a 300gr bullet. A 223 rim is .378.
Some LRP systems will gain some velosity due to the shorter breech plug but that is about it.

Found it circa 2009. The guy went by the name of Squirrelhawker on Dougs. They were 4140 or 4150 and the nose is .240 like a 209.
I would love to see Knight come back on as a sponsor, even as perhaps just a "Supporting Sponsor", so I could justify running an article now and then which spotlights their newer models. It would be interesting to spend some time at the bench to see how Knight's newest .45 model ... The Knight 500 ... compares to CVA's new long range .45 model - the Paramount. (One of the new CVA rifles will be on its way to us very soon.)
