    pan powder choice help

    yes, but I was asking if u can use ffg BP in the barrel and pyrodex FFFg in the flashpan, and I guess its a bad idea to mix the two of them so I gotta try and track down some 4f black powder, its killing me that I cant shoot the gun yet, wonder if I could get to be a descent shot by nov gun...
