Are you saying that basically if the powder is not compressed, it will missfire/hangfire?
That does not bode well for conicals, since they are usually not very tighly fitted.
Would sure like to find a way to use it in Colorado this fall.
Hard to ignite powders like smokeless will and Blackhorn is a lot like smokeless, so yes if not compressed tightly it will hangfire. Agree, it would not be the best powder for conicals. In fact if you read the brochure here:

you will see this which leads me to believe that conicals will not shoot well with Blackhorn. Chap
