Default That sucks!

Loaded 8 speed loaders with 100gr BH209, emptied the can and go into the shooting closet and am stumped! Out of BH209

Almost feel lost without it!

Oh well, i will go take the Apex out tomorrow instead with American pioneer 2f, 245gr powerbelts and those NSI primers and see how it does.

I cant believe i did that though! I normally order another case when im have 2 or 3 cans left. I'll blame the poor weather we've had during the earlier months for my lapse.

I'm afraid to buy too much BH 209. At any minute I could give up on inlines, and go back to just my sidelocks.

This is an internal battle i'm always in.



I know i'll never give up the sidelocks, so I do buy Swiss by the case. I love that stuff.

Me too but i figure that if i give up on inlines, my best bet is to buy a missoui hawken with the 1:24 twist so i can still shoot thors and powerbelts LOL.

Good thought.


Maybe a GPR with a spare GPH barrel.

Bought a canister of Black Horn two years ago. Have only half left. Looks like I may have to buy some more next year.

You're going to wear out your gun shooting all that powder.

Better slow down.

Well not with Black Horn, that's for sure. But I do buy a case of GOEX every year, plus any Pyrodex or Triple 7 that WalMart has left on the shelf after the end of season mark-down.
