Doesn't really matter where you get your powder from as long as you keep it dry. Blunderbuss is a good shop. Used to be a great shop in old Fort Collins, Grandpa's Guns or something but I'm not sure it's there anymore.

If anyone would be willing to bring me a 1lb can of 4F at Oktoberfest I'd certainly appreciate it and obviously pay for it. For use in my blackpowder rifle of course! I'll be driving and possibly sleeping in a chocolate brown Tahoe. I am both a NAR and TRA member.

The old guy retired and closed it. There is no BP FFFF in Fort Collins.

some may cry heresy, but i have been using 3f quite happily, mostly because it was around already for a kit built BP pistol. I find that the larger particle size does not behave much differently than the stuff AT supplies with reloads. I just always make sure to pack carefully, and ground test with the powder i intend to use, not assume that a given volume will behave the same across two different types.

Seems to me like that would be true for substitutes as well... your deployment system has to be able to ignite , and as long as it doesnt shoot burning particles through your , its just a ground testing exercise.

I use 3F also. Could not get 4F.

I had to adjust the amount a little.
