You can use it pretty safely in good working stout firearms that are chambered in blackpowder cartridge calibers. IE I will be using it in my 45-70 and 45 colt. I would not however pour it down a muzzleloader barrel.

Smokeless
There were some direct exchange bulk smokeless powders in the past. The last of them that I remember was Dupont bulk smokeless(I even have some) but it was a shotgun powder. The last of the bulk rifle powders are long gone. I have however used Pyrodex in some rifle caliber cases. Not smokeless but does work ok. Not real keen on that stuff cause ya have to clean clean clean after using it. Triple 7 is a kinda bulk powder too. Not many really know but it is a nitro type powder and generates a lot more pressure than Black powder. Luckily most of the modern muzzle loaders are pretty strongly made. Especially the inlines. Always wanted another flinter but have decided that black powder shootin is just too much trouble...at least for me. More power to those who like to clean guns..it is fun to shoot 'em. I always liked shootin the old Colt revolvers I have. I have in fact sold the old Colt Baby Dragoon I had. It was worth waaayyy too much for me to shoot anymore. Next to go will be the 1860 Army..probably to the same fellow.
