Powder/Primers

[DJM]

Finally got all the parts for my TC Pro Hunter muzzleloader. I'm looking for some insight on powder and primers. Is any one brand better than the other?

Thanks,DJ

I really liked Pyrodex Select loose powder...and then I started shooting Blackhorn 209! BH209 is way cleaner and more accurate for me. You need to use actual shotgun 209 primers for it and most rifles require a different breech plug too.

BH209 is pricey. But I don't shoot my Accura enough for it to matter. Stuff works fantastic. Easy clean up. Very consistent.

In my .54 Hawken I use 777. Also works very well.

Blackhorn 209 (BH209) and CCI 209M Primers.

I tried most brands and Thats my Favorite /primer too..

Less and easy cleaning...not too smokey...Remember measure powder by Volume not actual weight...Best loads in my 50 TC around 100g by vol

To the measuring aspect...if you take a volume and weigh that charge, you can increase your accuracy a LOT by weighing each charge and fine tuning just like you would with reloads.
