I prefer Goex over others. For anything .45 and under, pistol or rifle, I use 3f. 2f for larger bores. I HAVE used 3f for my .50 longrifle with good results. It is not really a safety issue, just an accuracy issue. Quite a few match shooters have had excellent results with the Swiss blackpowder. It does burn a bit wetter, that is the fouling is slicker. You can also get slightly higher velocities. Not enough to matter in my opinion. Goex is very consistent and is American made. It is the old Dupont powder but now made by Goex. It is about as close to the old time stuff as you are ever going to get.
