I did some photo compare on Swiss powder tonight. I have 2F, 3F, 4F and Null B.
Would like to open by showing the sizing chart
from the companies website.
Swiss Factory tour
Swiss Booklet
First up is a group shot.
Ok 2F!
Here we can clearly see the polishing that makes Swiss powder very top quality.
Next is 3F! (This is what most shoot if I am not mistaken.)
I have to admit that 3F is way more uniform than 2F is.
Here is what most use in flintlocks for priming the pan, 4F.
Now if we compare 3F with 4F we get more of the same but finer.
In fact at first glance 3F and 4F appeared to be the same.
I have to admit, I have used 3F in the pan of flintlocks to prime with, it does work.
Ok last up we have Null B, which is also priming powder
After looking at this item very closely I think I will switch over to using that instead of 4F.
If we compare 4F with Null B.
Yea I am definitely going to switch.
