Ho CN

`Friad so pard fer some reason or `nother jest seemed ta dwindle.

A reel shame too as there aint enuf Forums dedicated to the one true powder made from Gods own given ingredients,

Still, who knows mayhaps it can `rise agin` bit like the ole Phoenix

I guess its up to a couple of prospective new shooters of the wholly black to raise that Phoenix out of the ashes.

Maybe we start a post conataining a roll and dig through the forum and figure out who should be on it. Maybe someone with admin rights can pin it to the top.

I'ge got a few hundred rounds of the heathen stuff to use up and then I plan to go to the real stuff.

Same here. I did find a "Roll" type post but can't add us to it.

I loaded some 12 gauge brass with the good stuff last night and I'm about to head out and make smoke.

Is there anything more fun than making big clouds of smoke?

I'm still here and willing. Nothing but the Holy Black touches my smokepoles.

Other than wax for fast draw the only thing I shoot is the Holy Black.

Front stuffer
Cap and Ball
BP cartridge
and adding soon black powder shotgun.

I think we tried to go too fast. Started with a seal and then instantly went to different levels and layers based on different criteria. Probably just need to stay more focused on the "Holy Black"

ConfederateNorth · « **Reply #10 on:** March 08, 2013, 07:42:34 PM »

I only own the one gonne that uses the Holy Black so far, but I'm selling off the modern contraptions I own to fund a brace of cap and ball revolvers. I do my own leather work, made myself a set of spurs and pushrod, and plan to continue to make my own gear.
As such, I would see myself counted as a Brother Artisan upon taking up the Black Covenant.

Sir Charles deMouton-Black · « **Reply #11 on:** March 08, 2013, 08:13:56 PM »

ConfederatNorth; It sounds like you qualify as requested. The Covenant is basically self-administered as there are literally thousands of us , all around the world that follow the creed of the Holy Black. You are welcome to the brotherhood.

ConfederateNorth · « **Reply #12 on:** March 08, 2013, 08:27:49 PM »

Then count me proudly as a Brother in The Order.

I raise a "huzzah!" to you, my Brethren.

Paladin UK · « **Reply #13 on:** March 09, 2013, 01:23:24 PM »

Fer TWB...
Yep it certainly `took off` at a rate of knots!!

And I agree, the main only thing we should have been concentrating on is how to further our knowledge and understanding of the True Propellant.

Mayhaps this time around....?

Spent the afternoon working up a BP load that will shoot a good pattern in my Stoeger coach gun; which is now designated to only shoot the real stuff. Count me as a brother artisan too!

First time my son,8 , had seen black powder was today. The first shot I heard him yell "AWESOME!", followed by "Wow th smells awful"; guess BP odor is an aquifed scent.

Drayton Calhoun · « **Reply #15 on:** March 11, 2013, 12:13:43 AM »

All I use is the Holy Black. With nearly two dozen C&B revlovers.

Nothing beats that beautiful cloud of smoke. It won't take long and your son will think the smell is incense.

Not a bad way to woo the ladies either. When drinking my early morning BP tea, I put a little behind each ear. Gotta dang near beat the ladies off with stick.

Sadly, most of my old westiness gets an eye roll from the missus. She puts up with a lot.
