Black Powder Dealer

[condor]

I just picked up a repro black powder pistol and would like to play with it, but am having a heck of a time trying to find a local Sacramento dealer that stocks black powder. I've visited Just Guns, and Discount in Roseville and although JG has BP on their website, they carry nothing related in the store. Discount seemed to have rifle supplies only. The problem is I only wanted to pick up a pound and avoid the $28.00 Hazmat shipping surcharge. $28 bucks plus shipping for a pound of Pyrodex or FFFg just doesn't get it. So where do all of these BP clubs get their powder?? Group buys?? or someplace in town that I'm not aware of. Thanks for any help....

These folks is where I buy my GOEX BP. Great selection of other BP goodies as well.

Black Powder

Check with Sportsman's Warehouse in Rocklin or in Rancho Cordova, they both had Pyrodex in stock and on the shelf last time I was in there about a week ago.

I'll check with them... after I check out the Warehouse first. It's a heck of a drive.

I'll try the Rancho store first. Thanks for the lead...

Just need to pick up something, and Pyrodex will work.

Thanks

If they are to have GOEX or Swiss, that would be a miracle.

I totally forgot about Rusty's. I just know by experience that B-Bar-Y has just about everything for the Black Powder shooter. Weather its flintlock or percussion, 10 to 1 they have more for what you would be looking for.

Well I went to the Rancho Sportsmen's Warehouse and thought I'd died and gone to heaven. They had everything I needed and then some. About 16' of shelves and pegboard with BP stock. They had more of a selection then any of the online dealers thought about having. Many Thanks for the suggestion. I was getting real frustrated.... Picked up the Pyro, patches, and .451 ball.

Now I have another problem that maybe someone here has a cure. This pistol came with a tin of #10 CCI percussions. The pistol functions great....until I put caps on the nipples. Then it cocks and the hammer will drop once. The second time it half cocks and the indexing block doesn't drop and causes it to jam up and not cycle. Remove the caps and she runs as smooth as a baby's butt. I thought it might have been a problem with the timing except it works fine without the caps. A conundrum....?? Any suggestions??

Was it Pyrodex (the not real GP) and or did they have the real McCoy GOEX too?

That's where I go. Runs roughly $23.50 out the door for a pound of Goex. I'm in the area occasionally thankfully.

That being said if you're in a rush pretty much any place that has reloading supplies has Pyrodex or 777 or SOMETHING. Sometimes it's in a little muzzleloader ghetto one aisle over from where the smokeless powder would be if they had any.

Another place to check is in Auburn, Sierra Gun Supply. No website (530) 823-9113

It's Pyro P. FFFG equivalent. Didn't pay too much attention to what else they had... I'm still learning....

That's good to know from you guys. Jamestown is a bit of a drive for me as well but, well worth the drive to stock up. Thanks!
