For 44s and 50s, Wal-Mart and most gunstores sell Pyrodex pellets.

I think he means blackpowder loaded in metallic cartridges. For old guns that can only handle blackpowder. Not blackpowder for muzzleloading/cap and ball guns.

Das Pferd,you are correct.It looks like Car Knockers'link may have what I'm after.

If you're looking for something unusual, you might try Ballard Rifle and Cartridge. Here's a link: http://www.gunshopfinder.com/bytownresults.asp?ID=4083

If this isn't what you're looking for, try the BPCR website http://www.bprc.net. There ought to be some suppliers there.

If you're looking to get into BP cartridge, Handloader has articles sometimes that cover the basics.

Also try http://www.blackpowderspg.com. Another place is Montana Precision.

It's really not complicated. In "the old days", coyboys and buffalo hunters used to sit around the campfire and reload with simple hand tools. HTH

Ammo Direct has a black powder substitute load for the CAS guys. I have been meaning to ask what they use, but it's been in the "round to it" file for a bit.
