american pioneer sticks
I shoot these, and some people have told me they are no good. Does the sticks being square mean anything? Does it mean anything that they fall in the barrel sometimes and others they dont fit? Can I get accurate results with this powder?

RE: american pioneer sticks
I didn't! They shot OK,but lacked the power I was looking for. Also if I didn't "crush them" I would get a sort of delayed ignition. After crushing them the went off OK. The most consistant powder I have used to date is 777. It leaves a crud ring,but it's no big deal to work with.

RE: american pioneer sticks
I tried them over the summmer and I couldn't get eather of my 2 muzzleloaders to pattern with them. I switched to 777 loose powder and never looked back. A friend of mine shoots american pioneer loose powder and he loves it.
