Hey Guys,

I have a question. I use a 50 cal Ml with 2f in the load and 4f in the pan. In the pan I use 4f goex black powder and in the barrel I use 777 Hogdon. Will the different types of black powder affect the shot?

My dad shoots a 54 cal lyman and likes to shoot balls. He always used 4f in both the barrel and pan. I explained to him that 4f in both is too much pressure in the gun, and I got him to switch. He also wants to use the 2f 777 in the gun and the goex 4f in the pan. Will this combination affect his accuracy?

I guess the general question, is there a major difference in using the two different types of powder? Should I use straight goex or 777, or doesn't it matter?

I appreciate any feedback/answers
