Default RE: Shooting Muzzle loader $$

oh... and

10 oz of BlackHorn 209 is 4375 grains of powder

100 grains VOLUMETRIC of BH209 weighs roughly 70 grains

4375/70 = 62.5 loads per container of BH209 (call it 60 assuming a bit of spillage)

At $32 per container, each charge would cost ~ 54 cents

Using Blackhorn and the individual components in the first example above would yield a cost per load of ~ 95 cents... still a tremendous savings over the loads in the 2nd example above.
