[QUOTE="Smo, post: 4996341, member: 12078"] I could never figure out why anyone needed too use 150 grns of powder in a muzzleloading rifle or smoothbore for that matter. Kinda’ like why do you need a boat that runs 80 mph too catch a bass... I would never use any kind of modern smokeless powder in my guns , as they are not built too withstand those kind of pressure. Even though they are made with modern steel and have thicker breech areas than most modern inline guns. They are still designated as for black powder only. The modern smokeless gun , I personally would not shoot. Most accidents I’ve heard of were from short starting a gun or improper powder or excessive amounts of powder for the specific gun being used.
