Unless it's a muzzle loader I hate using real blackpowder and even less so Pyrodex .

IF I wanted the smoke the smell etc I think I'd try granulated Triple 7 most likely FFg .

The Triple 7 granulated has no corrosive elements in it where as Pyrodex does . I know alot of folks say cleaning black/pyrodex is no big deal . I don't agree any sealed action cartridge gun is bound to get some residue from the powder charge inside the action or some other spot thats difficult to clean without submerging in H2O .
