I went to the local BP/Primitive Weapon store today to buy black powder. I have not needed to buy it for ages(pre 9-11). My supply is finally running out. The nearest place to get it is about 2 hours round trip. The guy in the shop recommended Pyrodex.
I ask these questions.
1. if a was going to use 15 grains of BP would I still use the same size powder measure to load 15 grains of Pyro?
2. Does the amount of BP equal the same amount of Pyro? Would I use less or more or the same?
I would use the search function but in all my time here I have rarely found that doing a search yields the answer I seek.
I hope my questions make sense.
Thanks
