I'm possibly acquiring a TC Hawken Flintlock for hunting and well fun with a historical boomstick. I read the manual on the TC Arms website and it mentions that Pydrodex is NOT recommended for use in a flintlock. Now the problem is while my wife is fine...err tolerating me keeping smokeless powder and primers to start reloading 8mm Mauser and 30-06, I know there is no way I can convince her to let me keep Black Powder. Now before people say don't mention it to her, it's not how our relationship is and considering the amount of guns I own and the time I have to shoot,she's been good on her end, I owe her the same. More so I rent and I'm pretty sure my homeowners association would flip if there was an accident and black powder was found and I suspect my landlord would too (then again we had to buy a very high amount of personal liability insurance when renting vs the standard lol). Plus I'm getting used to smokeless powders and primers, I'm not ready include black powder. So is there anyway to use, safely of course, Pydrodex or a Black Powder Substitute in a Flintlock so I can avoid needing to buy and store black powder?
Thanks!
Thanks!
