In what loads do ya use pyro p. Isnt this a pistol powder?
While Pyrodex P can be used in pistols or revolvers, it is nothing more then a finer grade of Pyrodex RS. Pyrodex P is used in rifles all the time. Today I was shooting it in a .54 caliber rifle and a .50 caliber with some impressive results. While many people tell you not to use Grade FFF powders in rifles, I do it all the time and actually in many cases prefer them.
Today for instance in my Renegade, I was shooting 90 grains of Pyrodex P and some sabots. At 50 yards it was holding a good group until I had a flier. I was swabbing between shots, and when I did not swab, then I had it throw one on me.
I then changed over to a White Ultra Mag shooting 80 grains with a 500 grain conical. The accuracy was exceptional and the down range power would be something to see. When them conicals hit my steel trap, the clanking noise is very easy to hear.
