Gun Geezer,

Without ordering on line, the closest place I can buy real black is Burdett and son in Bryan/College Station. May be a drive for you.

But most folks would be surprised what little powder they can get away with using for positive results.

"Come, shall we go and kill us venison?
And yet it irks me the poor dappled fools,
Being native burghers of this desert city,
Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."
