smurph306 Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Hi, When you say Blackpowder proof does that mean you can only use black powder cartridges? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coney Basher Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Yes, that's what it is proofed for. Some people use normal (nitro) cartridges in their blackpowder proofed guns, but this of course is at their own risk. Another option would be to get it proofed for Nitro at one of the proof houses (Birmingham or London). C - B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
