Yes Pyro does have it's quirks... I am going to have to do some chemical scientifical research and verify that vinegar can kill off the perchlorates residues .... if so then your Windex solution will be part of my kit !
E'en tho I am
cheap frugal I have learned the hard way that one wants to clear ones "nipples" with a cap or two prior to loading...
It also sounds like you "shot in" your barrels - they often come a tad "rough" for our tastes but not so bad that one needs to lap them...
If you are that close to the Bay and Sacremento, you might have a chat with WaddWatsonEllis I beleive he is in the Sacremento area and the two of you may find enough BP fans to split a case delivered from one of the powder suppliers such as the Main Powder House:
http://www.mainepowderhouse.com/if you order a case of 25# GOEX & Scheutzen is $15.00/lb and Swiss is $20.50 but the 25# case Includes S/H & HazMat fee!
split it up with friends, just check on local regs for quantity you can hold, & make sure you have a good "box" to store it in.
hope this helps
