Good lord man...how many shots do they think
the average BP shooter uses in the field...when
hunting I carry 4 or 5 charges.
They sound interesting though...50gr BP equiv?

There was an article in the 89ish GD about white gunpowder. made with SP and vitamin C. It was a contender at one time against BP. I made some and it worked well in open burn. I never tried it in a ML.

What's the cost going to be? Unless it's a lot cleaner than T7 what's the point?

Higher velocities and cleaner burning got my attention but cost will be the big factor for sure. It wouldn't take much to be cleaner burning than T7 though......lol

Reading through the lines, it sounds as though this new powder may eliminate a lot of the crud ring problems that people experience.

Will it come in loose powder as well as pellets I use 777 in my pistol cartriges now and am happy with the clean up

Sounds like just pellets for now but all I know is what's in the press release.
