That’s why you don’t substitute one for one but use drams equivalent and use dense smokeless , not bulk. However we can identify the modern equivalent of what Parker said to use in their guns and most instances, buy it from the local gun store unless they want to sell you Black Storm Prairie Fire Super pheasant loads guaranteed to kill at 100 yards.

Indeed, but unfortunately some fellas were not paying attention



1902 Sears catalog No. 112
"Gun and rifle barrels can only burst by having some obstruction in the barrel or by overloading with Nitro powder...dense Nitro powder should be weighed using an apothecary's scale and not measured."
