One important take away from @B P Maniac Shooter's video is that if you don't have 4F (or Swiss Null B) to use in the pan, the 3Fg and 2Fg will work. The delay will be slight and you can shoot successfully.
Yep...that was the purpose of the video.
Shoot whatever you're comfortable with or can find.
They all work.
 
Many moons ago, an older gentleman told me, “if I can push a patched round ball down the barrel with my bare hands, any black powder will push it back out”.
I always tell myself this when loading my Inline rifle after it gets a little sticky from the plastic manure they make those new style bullets outta
 
Very educational video.
Question?
Why don’t you use Goex anymore?
Once I tried Schuetzen & Swiss, I lost total interest in Goex.
The Swiss & Schuetzen powders are VERY reliable. If I do my part correctly, the powder works.

I still have 4 pounds of the old 3F Goex and haven't used in 5 years.
The main reason is......cleaning the guns using the Swiss followed by Schuetzen is a 5-7 minute job each for me.
It use to take me 18-20 minutes to get Goex totally cleaned out of my guns, therefore, I'll pass.
 
If you send me your Goex you will have more room for the Swiss!
Amen brother.....more room for Swiss?? I'm with you on that..!!
If it wasn't for the hazmat, I'd give it to you.
I'll probably give it away sometime this summer to a new shooter when I start traveling & shooting with viewers of the BPMS Channel.

Different strokes for different folks. I cannot see a difference in performance between Schuetzen and Goex. Virtually identical, IMHO. But, I cannot get good groups with Swiss, no way, no how. Go figger.
