Goex
Good find Roundball. Hope ya got it cheap too. When I shot that black stuff I used to use that Goex. Found an orange can of ICI (British) 2f in my powder mag. Brought it from Md in the mags and haven't had a need to get into them till 3 days ago. Just as an aside...I acquired a Civil War Springfield quite a few years ago. Had 8 loads in the bbl. The hammer must have been snapped 100's if not 1000's of times. Used by kids for yrs playing around. All the powder was good and fired just fine in my T-C Hawken. It was kinda coarse though. I was also given a Colt Baby Dragoon many years ago and when I got it it was loaded..no caps though. Still have the balls somewhere around here. Surprisingly the nipples were in fine shape...NO KIDS
BTW How much is Black powder these days?? Can ya still buy a 25 lb keg?? I used to sell quite few of them evey year.
