FYI Blackhorn 209

Recommended Posts

The blackhorn guys are laughing all the way to the bank. Glad I have some already and will use it sparingly. I use 108 grains and a 300gr Parker Ballistic Extreme. That's creeping up on $5.00 a shot. WTF!

Arrowhead no size bullets are about the same. I shoot 111gr. Of BH209. I figure it runs me between $5.00 to $7.00 per shot, with the old cost of BH209. Yee haw!

OUCH!!! Glad my muzzleloader is dialed in and ready to go. I have Luke's breech plug in my original Ultimate Muzzleloader and it works great. Way better than the old system.

Make no mistake. Hodgdon alone is the bad guy. I have made a concerted effort to switch to other powder companies for my reloading. If you want the price of BH209 to come down, STOP buying it!

My 2 cents worth.
