Hello everyone, new here and to black powder firearms also. I'm not new to firearms though. I own several of the black evil rifles.... So, that being said I have a .36 cal Pietta 1851 Navy steel frame headed my way. I've got all the basics to get started with except powder. I've heard black powder can be very corrosive so I started looking at substitutes and that is where all the confusion started. I've seen completely contradictory information. Some people say the substitutes are more corrosive, some say less, and other yet say there is no difference. I'm just shooting for fun but I want what is going to be the easiest on my pistol. I will be cleaning after every trip to the range just like I do my AR's. As touchy as a dirty AR can be I know how important cleaning is. Not to open a can of worms but any suggestions?
