All I did was name it 'n get it started. The posse made it great. A debt I can never repay. Thank you, mi amigos.

Well, since ya insist on narrowin' it down - FFFg for me.


And your Poll is gonna find 2F the most popular.  Somewhat.  Like I said, pick one or t'other.  Or switch from time to time.


Annealing cases ... case-neck reaming ... you're settin' yourself up for too much work, pard.  Sure, it works.  But so does NOT going "the extra mile."  As you get more and more hooked on BP, you'll want to simplify.  BUT ... iffn yer havin' fun - then DO IT!!  ;D ;D ;D

So use 3F in all!

I only use 2f in shotgun and 43 spanish

I have used 3f for those and really prefer it in my 38 spl and 44 russian laods

So if'n I had to choose one I would go with 3f straight up.

I use FFFg in pistol caliber, and FFg in rifle and shotgun. But, if I only had one I'd go with FFg.

I simplified a few years ago. FFg for everything. 12 Gauge, 45-70, 45 Colt, 45 Schofield, & 44-40. If I wuz loading 38 Special with BP I would probably use FFg in it too.
That's bad business! How long do you think I'd stay in operation if it cost me money every time I pulled a job? If he'd pay me that much to stop robbing him, I'd stop robbing him.

Ya probably inherited every penny ya got!

Pitspitr

I mostly use CTG but if I were choosing between 2F and 3F I go 3 because you can use a little less in the big cases still get the same spped and use fewer $. (around here 2F and 3F are the same money)

I, like many use 2F for the smoke pole and 3F in the revolvers, but if I had to go with one I'd choose 3F.

Mostly I use "Cartridge" in my cartridge guns (Sharps, revolvers, leverguns & shotgun), 3F in the C&B pistols and 2F in the Hawken.  But, if I could only get ONE, I'd have to go with 2F.
