Accra-shot,small rifle primers temperature

I was gifted a TC Hawken by my uncle. The Hawken is a kit muzzleloader and it has an Accra-shot nipple. I was looking for information on the temperature and velocity of the spark from a small rife powder as I intended to use T7 as my propellant.

using mag spark,, i've finally got excellent grouping with 209 primers since changing to winchester 777 209 primers.. these are 1/2 the strength of cci & federal 209 primers. they fire prb 1/2 velocity of cci & federal primers with no powder...
(i had been using rws 1075 caps).. i was getting much fouling on my malcolm scope and mounts with the caps. the mag spark cured that.. The trick for easy primer change is wetting the primer in your mouth (or with oily fingers) spit in the cap before screwing on... competitors report 60+ shots on tournament days with no problems.. & spit don't hurt 209 primer firing. photo is before mag spark installView attachment 351214
