I don't know about Shockey's sticks..I haven't used them...I do know I wouldn't be crushing them up though...If you want to do that...just get the loose powder..

Save yourself time and use Pyrodex RS loose powder. I have had great results with 100 grains of loose powder and the 270 grain Platinum Power-belts. We shot three mule deer with this combination with great results, not one deer ran more than 50 feet after being hit.
