That's great for innovation and all but if you are using a muzzleloader and you alter the breech situation by the manner described, that's quite a change to the original system and is then in need of a new descriptive term such as "hybrid". I like the cap and ball muzzleloaders for the primitive nature they enshrine, but I don't hunt so I can see some changes for improving the practicality. But I don't think you can call that primitive with those alterations.
