Default Optima Pro powder?

I am new here and just recently purchased a used Optima Pro 50 cal.
The muzzleloader will be used this year for deer season. I was looking to purchase some 209 Blackhorn. I have heard this powder may be unsafe to shoot out of the Optima Pro. Has anyone heard anything about this or have used this powder in their Optima Pro with great results?

Thanks,

Larzep

I burn it in a Kodiak with no problems.

You can shoot it safely in an Optima Pro.
