That whole “ holy “ BS I can’t keep from loling & SMH at the absolute ridiculousness of it every time I see or hear it. Powder, just like the water, regardless of what anybody says, or thinks, they never have been & never will be anything other than just plain ole gunpowder & water & that’s the real truth to all that.I totally agree. I have shot the Holy black most of my life and pyrodex. I have never been sorry. Always had fun with family get togethers and turkey shoots. Always good fun. recently been reloading 12 ga shells for dove season and just fun shells with all the smoke. Thinking about all the years shooting BP and sitting drinking coffee with buddies talking about the new this or that. I all came back to the Holy black that got us all started. Good times for sure.
I was raised dove & quail hunting too since I was 8yrs old. I’ve never seen anyone load shotgun shells with BP in 50yrs of shooting & hunting. But if it takes care of your BP fix & puts a smile on your face, then by all means do it & have fun. I got a Pedersoli BP 12ga now that I would love to get shooting acceptable patterns & use it to dove & quail hunt with now. I still don’t use Goex in it though, T7 is all I use. It still gives me all the smoke clouds my heart desires with a lil more punch.
