I'm trying to figure out which powder or powder substitute to use in my brand new kodiak .72. I'm new to muzzleloading. I hear a lot of good things about Swiss powder. How about GOEX Express or Graf & Sons? Do many use H777? Thanks PJB



:
: Althought some guys use and like T7 or other 'fake' black powders, I find shot to shot consistancy much better with real BP. Swiss is deemed to be the best, however I've never tried it. The only BP we can get here, is GOEX., It's worked well for me, as did the GOX, ICI, Scot and Curtis and Harvey's powders of my shooting, years ago.
: With proper ball/patch combinations, fouling is not a problem for prolonged shooting. The fakes, like Pyrodex do foul less, however fouling has never stopped me from shooting a fulls day's sport. I wipe the bore when I clean it at the end of the day, not during a day's shooting of up to 100 shots.
