Description


Pyrodex® Powder is a powerful, highly efficient black powder substitute. Pyrodex Powder comes in a re-sealable one pound bottle, in three distinct granulation types:

Pyrodex® P (Pistol) is made for use in all pistols and smaller bore rifles, .45 caliber and less. P is also useful as a priming charge in guns that exhibit a tortuous or fouled ignition channel or other worrisome ignition problems. Pyrodex® P is equivalent to FFFG black powder on a particle size basis. 

Pyrodex® RS (Rifle Shotgun) can be used in all calibers of percussion Muzzleloading rifles and shotguns. It has a extensive application of use, and is the most versatile powder in the Pyrodex® line. Like all grades of Pyrodex®, it burns cleaner and produces less fouling than black powder. RS is equivalent to FFG black powder on a particle size basis. 

Pyrodex® Select is considered by many the most accurate powder available. Select is an enhancement of the RS grade of Pyrodex®. Using RS or 2F data in a volumetric measure, Select can significantly reduce group size. Magnificent news to deer hunters is that Select performs well with sabots and conical bullets. Select has duly become a favorite among many black powder cartridge shooters because of its exceptional consistency. For target use, the Pyrodex® Select is simply the "best of the best". 

 **Do not exceed the loads displayed in the loading guide. Never mix any two powders regardless of type, brand, or source. Never substitute any smokeless powder for Black Powder or any Black Powder substitute.

It Works

Must say I’ve never used black powder of any sort. Not knowing what to expect I found that it flows very freely. Made a mess in working with it at home. But it was fun. When I cleaned up, I formed the spilled powder in a line and carefully lit one end. Pooof! It was gone. Great fun, I’ll never do it again.
Went to the range, loaded up my 1851 Navy had even more fun. I was shocked at how accurate it was. Now I know the joy of ball and cap.
Pyrodex is really smelly, but clean up was amazingly easy.

This is all I've used for my 1860 so far.
I've never had an issue with it.
