Thank's to Federal 12 papers and imported Cheddites 12 & 16 I use a bunch of black powder loads. Load once and toss as the powder fry's the insides of the hulls. For the 10"s I use plastic hulls as no paper hulls are available. I have not had any bad experiences with melted plastic because I use a fiber wad column. If one uses a plastic wad it will melt and coat the barrels like a snake shedding it's skin. The heat generated from the burning powder acts on the wad base and melts them depositing plastic along the barrels. Load only card and fiber in black powder loads. It really is great fun with black powder loads and they are just as effective as modern powders on clay's or birds. Also a big plus on the wow factor when the smoke billow's and fire belches from your muzzles. Black powder clean up is not a real chore and is accomplished in a very shot time when you set up properly for cleaning. Also GOEX Old Eynsford burns cleaner and the fouling is lighter than more traditional older manufactured powders.
Easily shoot a 50 round clays course without having to run cleaning patches through the tubes using this powder.
