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® 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". 

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® 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.

 **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.

Good powder

Pyrodex select is the powder that shoots most accurately in my muzzleloader. It ignites easily, burns clean and shoots accurate groups. I'm glad I was able to get it.

Flintlock?

I've been shooting pyrodex since it first came out. It helped me win many matches, harvest many deer,in a caplock rifle. When I tried using it in a flintlock, it was not good unless you put booster charge of real blackpowder in first. The only substitute type powder that will work in one is called pinnacle, or just use plane old blackpowder. Now unless pyrodex has changed their formula, blackpowder is still best for flintlocks.
Been shooting muzzle loading weapons since 1966, and at 72, I still enjoy doing so...underhammer dave

Pyrodex® P Powder

None of the reviews I read on the powders in this site say Pyrodex® Select vs Pyrodex® P Powder
Are either of these powders considered Smokeless?
Hence my 2 star review
