I'm going to try it in my Pursuit first. It has what looks to be a compatible breech plug and I'm taking it to tweek the scope tomorrow anyway. If that works out ok the Vision will be next. If it works well I plan to make the Vision my designated Blackhorn shooter.

That sounds like a good idea. It shot well out of my Genesis. Which has about the same plug design as your pursuit. Good luck with your new powder.

Thanks, I could have bought 2 pounds of Goex for what I paid for 10 ounces of Blackhorn 209. But if it works well in my Vision it will be worth it I guess.

No Blackhorn testing today. The range trip has been canceled. It looks as though I'm going to get rained out.
