I just brought a caplock hawken rifle. as they had no smoothbore kentucky rifles. Stupuid UK laws regarding rifled barrels!!! :cursing:
The guy at the store said not to use pyrodex as it could blow the barrel. It also says on the Gun, blackpowder only. From what I have heard, Pyrodex is not that differnt from BP, in terms of velocity and stuff. Would it be safe to use pyrodex in my Gun or not?
I need some real gun experts here so I don't go and ruin my new caplock.
It's a pedersoli hawken by the way. An older version. Maybe 15-20 years old. I don't really know to be honest. It's seconhand and looks maybe 10 years, give or take.
I'll post some pictures later.
Thanks :thumbsup:
