Priming powder
« on: May 20, 2021, 01:14:37 PM »
Many years ago we used to attend the NMLRA matches at Friendship, In. About the last time we were there, Mountain State Muzzleloading Shop was giving away these little bottles of priming powder. I went there twice (to their booth) and still have the bottles.

I agree with Mark. And the powder is probably good yet!

We had not heard of "web sites" back then. L@J. They did have zip codes though! This was about '84-85, so only about 37 years ago.  *6'

We had web sites then. Mostly in the shed or garage, but occasionally in the house. My wife was quick to clear 'em, though...
