[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2537594, member: 5412"] Yes you can. Loose powder is much preferred over the pellets by some serious BP shooters. Your gun will tell you what is the most accurate. I've seen tests that show the real Black Powder is less corrosive than some of the pellets. Other pellet manufacturers have developed powders that just use water to clean, so the process is evolving. I have a Savage Smokeless Muzzle loader. It uses modern powders, has higher velocity's and doesn't need cleaned after every shooting session. In a SHTF deal, one could use the powder from loaded rounds that have been found, abandoned, with great caution, but in a SHTF scenario, one has to do what one has to do. [/QUOTE]
