Where do you guys buy blackpowder?
Since Sannadex and Buschalk are no longer being made, what do you guys use to keep your guns smoking? I still have a small amount of Buschalk left, but what do I get in future? I understand that AEL sells Wano and Swiss, but apparently the price has gone up to R1250/kg and R2580/kg respectively!!! What now?

You will have to buy at AEL, otherwise you will pay through your nostrils.

Re: Where do you guys buy blackpowder?
How about making it yourself? Been done 2500 years ago in China. Easy to do. Problem is to transport it.

I generally get with a couple of buddies and we order 50-60lbs from the Maine Powder House. Delivered to my door.
