Hi all,
I recently purchased a reproduction 1861 Springfield and I am very much looking forward to shooting it someday soon. I am having some trouble, as I imagine many are, of finding powder and musket caps here in the Chicago land area.
It would seem that we have a good supply of Pyrodex, but very short supply, actually none, of real FFG BP. Would powder pellets be an option for this firearm or not? If not, I guess I would have to use the pyrodex rs, seems to be the only option I can find locally.
Thank you.
