Green River black powder??

[Frontier's]

Is it a true black powder, or a substitute? It's from the 70s.

Bulky, a 70gr volume measure of the stuff weights 59 grains, spot on with 70gr V of American Pioneer Powder.

Note all the Gray's and white granules. No evidence of graphite either.

Interesting, 11 grains different then weighed.

I'd say a substitute with that weight difference. Stick it in the pan of a flintlock and see how many trigger pulls it takes to go off!

It was real powder . I don’t recall now who it was they had it made by. But rest assured it was true powder and not the stuff with fake smoke added

Doc whites company.

I'm waiting on Carl walker to get me more info on the powder.
