    i know the guy who makes holy smoke powder
    busy developing a powder designed for black powder cartridge rifles its not officially released yet (as far as i know) but he gave me and a couple of the other guys some to try
    and its very good its a bit bulky so you cant fit as much powder in the case but its more powerful
    55gn of it is within 20fps of my normal 60gn swiss load with good es and sd

    its good to know we will always have an option made here in nz that's almost as good as the high end European options

    Yup, I hope he has a plan for someone to take over the business once he has had enough.

    Might even be a market for his product in the US now...
    Although that would swallow our ration pretty quickly.
