Wano ???
« on: May 11, 2012, 09:22:16 AM »
A local dealer has Wano Blackpowder. I was wondering if anyone had used this and is it a good powder. I'd be using it in an 45-90 rolling block. Thanks. Peter

It's a good powder. The grain size of 2f is closer to what we're used to seeing with Goex 3f.
As it is a European powder it will leave a hard crusty foul like Swiss does, but it's everybit as good of a powder as Swiss.

In the 1920's "sheeple" was a term coined by the National Socialist Party in Germany to describe people that would not vote for Hitler. In the 1930's they held Hitler as the only one that would bring pride back to Germany and bring the budget and economy back.....

Wano, the German manufacturer of Schuetzen powders sold in the US reformulated their processing of it in 2009.  This added an 8 - 10% increase in velocity
