Default RE: Newbie to Loose Powder

Here is something I found on the Modern Muzzleloading forum from a very experianced shooter.
I have not used it yet as it is not available localy,I will have to order it but I will wait to get all the powders I need before I do because of the hazmat fee.I need to get together with others when they order and split the cost.



Blackhorn 209 VOLUME to WEIGHT calculator:

VOLUME in GRAINS BH209 / 1.5 = WEIGHT in GRAINS BH209

OR... VOLUME in GRAINS BH209 X 0.667 = WEIGHT in GRAINS BH209



Recommend cleaning supplies:

SO FAR...Hoppe's #9 Solvent is the best we've used for BH209 bore/action cleanup. Follow up with a good gun oil such as Birchwood-Casey Synthetic Gun Oil or Breakfree.
