agreed - that's what i meant - but you phrased it much better

Thanks guys, and yes, the smoke and fire are a big part of the pleasure I find in shooting black powder. In fact, my Grandson and I have nicknamed my Neumann Brothers and my American Gun Company doubles "Thunder and Lightning!"

Active group of single shot rifle shooters that use BP in Mass. Will ask but I bet they buy from Maine Powder House.

My Parker lifter use bulk re-enactor grade 2 F from Winchester VA cost less than pound cans of Goex (he sells Goex too) and does fine . It's not labeled but most say it's Goex re-packaged from kegs. 200 mile drive for me I stock up every couple of years.

If you have any re-enactors or members of NSSA nearby they will have a source for sure
