WAIT! DON'T PANIC ! ! ! ! I'm not giving up on percussion or going to never buy a muzzle loader. Let me explain.....
I was into a couple of the local shops today asking about sources for honest to gosh Holy Black only to learn that no one locally is bringing it in. Due to its classification as an explosive it would need to be brought in by itself rather than mixed in with other ammo or reloading supplies. As a result none of the local shops are carrying it according to the two that I asked.
So that leaves me with buying left overs from other former users or finding some other source... yeah, right......
So once my present "almost 1 pound" can of Goex is gone I guess I'll be reduced to Pyrodex or 777.... *sigh*.... and here I was just getting used to the idea of the rotten egg fart smell at the end of each day of cap-n'-ball playing.... *sigh*
Likely it's not totally over. I'm sure I'll come across some from local former users that I can buy. But it'll be less and less and dry up soon enough.
... mind you... I still have yet to make contact with the local Holy Black underground contingent. It may well be that they have sources.... yeah, "sources" are good aren't they? I mean they sell quality stuff that isn't cut right?
Wha?.... desparate? Who, me ?!?!?!?! NO NOT AT ALL! I CAN QUITE ANY TIME I WANT! ! ! ! !..... I just don't want to.....
