Last year I bought a lb of 2 and 3 Fg Goex and wanted to see how it felt compared to my current go to substitute in Triple 7 and uh... it didn't really make me feel real black was anything special. It had the same recoil and feel, I know it's less energetic than T7, and even the smell of the smoke didn't smell much different or better.
That said I liked shooting the Goex more than Pyrodex, it smells much better and is less of a mess to clean and less corrosive. I did not shoot any paper with the Goex, that will be the next time I go shooting, but I know Pyrodex is very accurate out of my percussion revolvers. If the Goex shoots as well as Pyrodex, I think I will keep a couple pounds on hand and give my remaining Pyrodex away, but I will not be replacing Triple 7 as my primary powder for muzzleloaders.
