Blackhorn 209 Muzzleloading Powder

Minimal fouling
No swabbing between shots
Higher velocity
Remarkable accuracy

Revolutionary Blackhorn 209 propellant is redefining the term accuracy in muzzleloaders. When used as directed, this high-performance powder consistently shoots with higher velocities and greater accuracy than other propellants. It's engineered to eliminate swabbing and cleaning between shots. When compared with volume equivalents, Blackhorn 209 is ballistically superior to other muzzleloading propellants. Blackhorn 209 has the industry's lowest standard deviations and a low pressure-to-velocity ratio for precise performance every time. Blackhorn 209 is recommended for high-performance muzzleloaders with 209 primer ignition systems where the primer is TOTALLY enclosed. Not for use with any special muzzleloading primers, #11, musket or high-powered rifle primers. This powder is not suitable for sidelock muzzleloaders. Unaffected by changes in humidity or temperature. Cleans with regular centerfire or shotgun solvents. Per 10-oz. bottle.

Absolutely the best!

Date:May 4, 2012

Over the years, I have used Goex, Pyrodex RS, Pyrodex Select and Triple Se7en in my muzzleloaders. I finally settled for Pyrodex Select for use in my Omega, although there was very little difference in any powder I used. After listening to several other black powder shooters and reading many reviews, I finally went over to the dark side and purchased some Blackhorn 209 to try. Was I surprised! I was patterning a new bullet (for me), a Barnes Spitfire T-EZ to work up a decent hunting load. My previous hunting load, a 250 grain Barnes Expander MZ pushed with 100 grains of Select, gave me groups that measured just under 3". I used a spit patch between every shot followed by a dry patch. Even though I used anti-seize grease, the breech plug was a bear to remove for cleaning. Anyway, today I went to the range with my new powder and bullets. I wound up shooting a 1 1/8" group, using the 250-grain bullet and 105 grains of BH 209. I never swabbed during the entire session and never had a "hard" load. The 20th bullet went down the pipe just as easily as the first one did. When I got home to clean the rifle, the breech plus almost unscrewed itself. There was absolutely NO bind. I did read somewhere that a 100-grain load of BH 209 is considered a "magnum" load and that I should not go over 120 grains of powder. My Omega is rated for 150 grains and I was trying to work up a good-shooting load so I started at 90 grains and worked up to 120 grains. The 120-grain load let me know right away that I should not go above that number. The kick was substantial! I am sold 100% on Blackhorn 209. It gives great patterns, you can forget about swabbing between shots and hard to remove breech plugs are a thing of the past. I have nothing but positive things to say about this powder.

This is by far the cleanest powder I have used for muzzleloading. Cleanup is easy and it while sighting the rifle in it performed the same every time. I was using the TC Omega with the Nikon Omega so the gun was legitimately sighted in at 250 yards. I didn\u2019t need it for the deer pictured below as I was only 30 yards away. But I was prepared to use it at the 250 yard range due to the consistency of the powder burn and the setup of the gun.

Great powder

Date:January 11, 2012

It is an excellent propellant! Very consistent, never clumps up, and is extremely clean. I used to use 777 pellets, and had to clean up after 2 or 3 shots. Blackhorn is very clean on the barrel.

Best non corrosive powder for muzzleloaders ever!!

Date:January 9, 2012

Was worried at first about trying this powder. But after going to blackhorns web site and reading how to use the powder correctly. Examples cleaning the breach plug with a drill bit and using the correct shotgun primers. I was able to shoot 25 times as fast as I could load the rifle with out cleaning the barrel. After the first shot I noticed a slight difference in loading the second slug down the barrel. But the 25th shot was no harder to load than the second shot was. I have tried them all and nothing can perform like this powder!!
