Powder Shortage!
« on: March 21, 2013, 08:33:20 AM »
So I guess I use Triple Seven 3F now. That's all they had at bi-mart. (Since Sabotloader uses it, I was thinking of switching anyway. Plus, I can't get more than 100 grains of 2F in my speedloaders) And the ammo shelves are bare!

 What's up everybody! End of the world? Is Obama gonna take away our smoke poles? :yike:

I think you will really like 3f - burns cleaner and easier to ignite....

Keep shooting muzzleloaders - They are a blast!!

I'm far from a muzzleloader expert but out of the few different powders I've tried, I've had the best results with that.

And yes, I think everyone is hoarding for the end of the world. Smokepoles will kill zombies too, right?
Just a little slower?

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
