It works.
It is really "dirty" though.
But it's better than a stick in the eye if you have a Flinter.

I tried it in my side lock today, it,s not a flinter it,s cap. made lots of smoke but thats half the fun. cleanup was about the same as other black powders. Will try it sat. on a deer if I get lucky.

If you decide to buy more real black, look for Goex, Swiss, Schuetzen or Grafs labels. For best dollar value on individual jug purchases, I'll grab the Schuetzen first.

It doesn't work as good as Goex in shotguns.
