Can I use Pyrodex pellets in my rifle?
Pyrodex pellets are useful if accuracy is not a big issue. Ignition is good because of the breech-plug design in White rifles, but usually accuracy suffers in comparison with the use of Pyrodex P or the other Black Powder substitutes. Saboted bullets are preferred if you must use the Pellets, as the Pellets need some back pressure from a tighter fitting bullet to burn correctly. Slip-fit PowerPunch bullets are less efficient and less accurate than Saboted bullets when using Pyrodex Pellets, sometimes dramatically so. If you must use Pyrodex Pellets, always use a White or other high quality saboted bullet..
