Is it a big deal to use pellets, i will make a mess with powder, and i keep reading that podwer is dirty and use pellets, i am Brand new to all of this so any ideas will help
To shoot loose powder is easy. Get a pour cap that fits the top of the jug of powder. As you can see in the picture, the red caps fit right on the top of the one pound jugs. And then get a volume powder measure. Set it at what ever you want to shoot and full the powder measure, and then dump from the powder measure down the bore of the rifle. There really is no mess and it is a lot less expensive then pellets.
Pellet or loose powder, they are are the same for clean up.
