I had a CVA once but I would never use 150 grains of anything in it. But I also had prior ML experience with a flintlock and knew that high a powder charge isn't warranted. I agree that a lot of people are new to the sport and don't know what they are doing.
heard on the radio the day after New Years someone was carrying on a tradition and firing a blackpowder gun and it exploded and killed him.I was just wandering what causes this to happen.
Alcohol maybe?
