sabotloader,
I'm with you on the Goex ClearShot. That stuff is junk - weak & dirty.
Just in my cap & ball revolver, ClearShot produces only 1/2 of the velocity 777 3fg does. And forget the 2fg out of a rifle - it's at least 20% weaker than Pyro RS..........meaning again, it's 40 to 50% weaker than 2fg 777.
CleanShot/American Pioneer/Pinnacle on the other hand ain't bad stuff. The 2fg powder was 5 tp 10% weaker than RS - but the 3fg cut is at least on-par with RS. As such, it's probably a tad less powerful than 777, but just the usual 10 to 15% that you have to deal with when comparing it to Black or Pyro. This stuff IS CLEAN too.

You just have to make sure it stays dry and de-humidified.
