What are you round ball shooters pouring down your rifles these days? Black powder, Pyrodex, smokeless substitutes???
I might fix the muzzle loader drought!

Personally, I tried some of the BP subs, but NOTHING beats True BLACK powder for Me! Both my CVA Kentucky .45 and CVA Mountain rifle .50 shoot best with BP. I don't mind the clean-up, and the smoke looks & smells BETTER than the subs I tried.

Nothing but true blackpowder. It`s done the job for hundreds of years. And done it well.

At the ga. state championship the wind was blowing in our faces, when I got home my teeth were black!! Black powder caused it.

Goex 3F, pillow ticking, and a round ball.

Real Goex black powder. Pyrodex will work in a percussion gun, but there's still nothing out there better than the original real stuff.

what about....

Anyone using "CLEAN SHOT"? I bought this years ago and BELEIVE it changed names to 777 but memory is foggy. Cakes a bit but shakes loose in original plastic container. Supposedly non corrosive.
