Pyrodex 1F


McCandless

Recommended Posts

Somehow I ended up with a sealed bottle of Pyrodex CTG (FG). Since I don't have a cannon, I wondered if it would work for some 12ga loads. (Of course, I could load some up and try it... but figured asking might work too :blink: )

It's like real coarse little rocks...anybody ever try 1F in a shotgun??

 

still ticking!

Will work as well as Pyrodex ever works (UGH). Keep atmospheric moisture out of the powder, shoot loaded cartridges as soon as you can, and CLEAN well within 4 hours of shooting. That granulation may not meter well through much of anything except a big flask or dipper.

 

Good luck, GJ

I loaded a batch of 12 ga with Fg for a night shoot at Illinois State a few years back. The spectators said I had burning powder particle bouncing off of the targets. Cool!
