I'm sure you've all heard about the recent closure of GOEX by Hodgdon Powder.
This coupled with the fact that 2Fg of any kind has always been hard to find in my area is somewhat upsetting.
I only put about 10 rounds a year through my antique Springfield muskets, usually on July fourth weekend while giving friends a chance to experience the feel of shooting a genuine civil war piece.
Up until now I have avoided the black powder substitutes and in fact I am very leary of using them in an antique, but it appears it may become my only option in the future. (That or quit shooting them)
I would appreciate it if forum members would consider sharing their experience and advice on use of black powder substitutes in antique muskets.
Thanks in advance.
