Ok, at the END of that page linked above, there is a link back to here at Calguns and in post #6, it says
So does that mean, I can't have more than 1lb. of BP at home UNLESS it is in a 1" thick wooden box and then I can have 20lbs. if I keep them in their original containers ? I am confused and even the calgunsfoundation link that brings the information back to this site is saying more than 1lb. with a proper box.
This is worry some to me, I generally have several pounds of BP at home in different grades since I shoot Flintlocks which require FFFF and FFF and then handguns that use FF, currently I am good since I am low on powder, I have a little over a 1 lb. at home and I will go shooting in the morning and get below 1lb. BUT I had planned on buying powder this weekend and in the past I usually order 10lbs. in different grades like 5 of FF and 4 of FFF and 1 of FFFF, then work down to where I am today and place another order. If it really is 1lb. max, then how do I even shoot rifles and handguns, much less add the FFFF for the Flintlock.
