Prepping for the first test with the new Goex black powder!
The first test I'll mainly focus on learning about the new powder. How it flows from my powder pod, how well it measures out consistently, powder granulation consistency, fouling in the bore, and of course, accuracy.
Once I find a nice shooting load with 2fg and 3fg, I'll move to the chronograph and we'll take a look at the power and consistency of the new goex.
Taking notice, both cans of powder were in perfect shape. View attachment 1000009015.jpgNO clumping or sticking, powder looks great. It looks consistent but the only real way to check, is to screen it.
When I get to the chronograph stage, I'll compare it to the original Hodgdon Powder Goex VS the New Estes made Goex.
The hard part?
Deciding what gun do I'll use for the test![Grinning squinting face :laughing: 😆](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f606.png)
