I just bought my first BP off gunbroker (kinda nervous)--a Traditions Deer Hunter (.50 cal). Says it is used but in good condition.
I want to keep it simple--just want to go shoot a few rounds to get the feel. I know I need caps, balls, and powder, as well as cleaning supplies.
I have everything but powder and have a question:
Can I use the pyrodex pellets or do I have to go with granular powder since it is a sidelock? Forgive me if I mis-name something, still trying to get it all down.
thanks
