Title: Black Powder Can collection
Post by: Abilene on April 21, 2025, 05:54:02 PM
This is pretty meager I'm sure compared to some, but I decided to display my little collection of BP can designs.  The only substitute is Goex Clearshot, which was a great sub when they made the first 1000 lb hand mixed, but when after a few years delay they finally geared up to make it by machine, it sucked.  And then the factory burnt up.  I failed to save any of my Elephant cans, and a member on this site some years ago offered to send me one but he never did.  But recently another shooter gave me one.  These are just sitting on top of an entertainment center; I'm thinking I might put them on a little shelf over a window.

I have a DuPont BP can from when I was shooting NSSA in the late 60's & early 70's. Price written on the can $1.95

$1.95, Wow!  I have to admit, the DuPont precedes my shooting days (started CAS in '99).  Bunk Stagner gave me two cans, one empty.  I still have the full can of FFFg, saving it.  :)
