I bought a S 91-11 a few weeks back that came with a 209 conversion installed. Well, we had it to the range the other day to try to adjust the scope and to try some of Ed's bullets. Upon firing the first round, I was shocked to see the rifle eject the 209 primer just like an auto loading rifle. It didn't push the hammer back far enough to recock it, just far enough to spit out the primer. :shock: We shot 10 rounds and it ejected nine of them, and makes a bigger mess than normal out of the breech area. Weak hammer spring? All I know, It is out with the 209 bp, and in with the #11 bp. Even with all that going on the rifle was very accurate
