Powder
#7
I use T7-3f in all of my cap locks using a Mag cap. I have no problem igniting the T7 even in sub freezing weather.
Right now I have a load of 110 grains of T7-3f with a .452-250 grain Lehigh in a Knight ready to go hunting in the morning or maybe this afternoon.

I was shooting Triple Seven 2f yesterday in a LK-II which is a plunger style, with Winchester Magnum #11 caps and had not ignition problems until something strange occurred which I have yet to figure out. Today I took the same rifle out, same powder, same every thing and shot 10 rounds without a flaw...
Pyrodex RS is easier to ignite of the two mentioned. But if you prepare the rifle correctly, either should work just fine.
