I sure read a lot about inlines using this or that powder, but does anyone ever use just plain good old black powder in your inlines? I have had an inline for over 20 yrs, but have not shot it since I bought my TC Hawken. I have some substitute black , but it likely is not good anymore cause its about 6 yrs old, but black ,,,, seems to just last forever and seems to work so well.
Black powder is all I use. Like you say, it keeps forever. I don’t see any advantage for Pyrodex. Some of the newer substitutes are said to be less corrosive. I am fairly diligent with cleaning my ML’s and the bore on my 30 y/o Knight looks new.
