[QUOTE="SteveJ, post: 4980229, member: 20210"] I know not to shoot it. I'm not a risk taker or I would've done it years ago. My question was about the pressure of a small amount of 4198 (which he says is a slower burning powder) vs a large amount of blackpowder and why manufacturers would say not to use it if the pressure is less. It looks like the guys with smokeless muzzleloaders are shooting more like 70 or 80 grains since they are built for it. This guy that uses it is kind of a backwoods hillbilly and I have a hard time believing it's not blowing his gun up. But he's not the type that would lie either. [/QUOTE]
