Default RE: American Pioneer Powder?

Coyote 170,
I think your gonna like the American Pioneer Powder. I've been using it in a Knight for about 5yrs.

As Triple 7 already stated Keep it Dry Dry Dry. A Huge Biggy with APP. I keep a pound and pitch it after 2yrs. This yr I switched from the FF to FFF. Much easier to work with and slightly less residue.

Short Story;
I just highly recommended APP to a friend whose T/C I just spent 2 days working on. The guy had never removed the breech plug(7yrs) OR properly cleaned the barrel or plug. In past couple years he's missed,wounded deer and had at least 2 misfires all due to improper care. I salvaged the barrel,but strongly suggested APP over Pyro or 777 simply because I know he will never really properly clean the weapon. APP is alot more forgiving as far as corrosion.

Your gonna love it!
