Hey guys.
My supervisor came to me with a question today regarding black powder. Her husband shoots cowboy matches and loads his .45 Colts and 10-gauge exclusively with black powder. She and her father in law are wanting to go in halves and buy him 10 pounds of black for Christmas.
She knows I'm a gun guy and asked me to research it a little. I'm a smokeless guy myself and know very little about black powder, but knew that you guys could help.
Question 1. Is powderinc.com a good place to buy black? Have any of you guys used them and what was your experience ordering from them.
If not, who would you recommend as an online vendor?
Qestion 2. What is the cleanest burning black powder. She only knows that the powder he buys is in a black plastic 1 pound jug (I know that doesn't tell you a helluva lot).
He said that he got a good deal on some black one time and it was dirty and cleaning was a PITA so he didn't like it too much. So, what are the cleaner burning ones?
I appreciate it guys.
