Yes it is. And you have the entire forum when you have specific questions or want to narrow down a particular activity.
Have you decided on a rifle? A lot of information will be for a specific style & caliber.
Of course our Forum has more information than anyone will ever use in it so just reading thru the posts will provide a wealth of knowledge.
The Search engine is a bit fussy and won't accept words less than three letters long so if your search question has words like that, put the phrase in quotes.
If you have a used book store around, check it out.
There have been a lot of books published that deal with shooting black powder.
Even old books are still good reading because traditional muzzleloading hasn't change for over 200 years.
Something like "Shooters Bible "BLACK POWDER GUIDE" is still a good reference and if you happen to find a copy of Lymans "BLACK POWDER HANDBOOK & LOADING MANUAL", you've struck a gold mine of information.

What part of Texas are you heading to? I'm in Waco if that's close enough to be of use.
