Have you heard??

[Frontier's]

Goex is closing!!

Yeah, I know. I've read it so many damn times already, that I am over it.

Now prepare for instructing others on the different powder available and where to get it.

I've never seen so many posts, where folks run their supplies to nothing, and then complain about it not being available when they need it!

Folks, there's other powder available out there, including goex. If you don't buy when you had the chance, then oh well, that's your fault.

You don't wait till a gas shortage hits to fill your tank right?

But did you hear GOEX is closing.

 

[Brokennock]

Really?! Goex is closing?
Well, now all it will take to end muzzleloading is for them to stop making Dawn dish detergent.

 

[Britsmoothy]

Hey, I don't know if you guys know but you know your goex plant, yeah, it's closing!

 

[Woody Morgan]

Hey, I don't know if you guys know but you know your goex plant, yeah, it's closing!

It's official. This is now international news.

I still am shocked and a little disturbed that GOEX shut down. I'm not surprised that there is a lot of chatter about it. I wish we could stop sniping each other long enough to produce an organization that could support a business that is such a fundamental part of our way of life.

 

[COTNTOP]

What's GOEX?

I would also like to mention that we need to stop running down Pyrodex and the like. By doing this it hurts their sales and they to might quit producing their product and then we will have nothing to use? We are a small market we would be wise to not run them away.

Maybe they could make something closer to say, gunpowder now.

Yeah, but I can't have a 1000 gal. in-ground tank where I'm located! Many farmers do, though!

I'm glad I'm not a cannon cocker. They use a lot each shot.

You're right, but the product is just not real good for traditional flint. It's not a knock on the actual product, it's just that it's specific for other types of guns. BTW, GOEX makes several other types of powders in addition to Black, so they'll be gone, too! What a mess!

 

[BJamesBeck]

Not the first EX I've had that gave up after many years, I'm sure it won't be the last.

Wow; didn't know it went International!

 

[Ben Meyer]

How is Pyrodex/777, etc in a percussion Hawken? I've never tried it

I do have a nice modern rifle that I used to deer hunt with but has collected dust for several years. I use Pyrodex pellets with it, but it runs 209 primers. My Hawken uses the regular #11s.

GOEX!? What is this black powdery stuff anyways!

Nope. Pyrodex is garbage .

There is this company...hmmm... I think they're called SCHUETZEN. Schuetzen supports our youth black powder instruction work with powder and caps. Goex wouldn't return a phone call or email. As far as I care, goex can pound sand.

 

[Frontier's]

Pyrodex is far from garbage. Very accurate, consistent, 100fps faster than goex. Not all nipples work well with it, but it's easy enough to change your nipple for an aftermarket like the spitfire or red hot nipple.

Fresh off of FB to boot!

 

[Black Powder Guy]

I still have about seven or eight pounds of Goex. Now i will need Schuetzen. Started out with Pyrodex in my caplocks and revolvers till about 2008 after that it's real black.
