RE: How many use Pyrodex in sidelocks?
I'd hate to guess how many pounds of Pyrodex RS and Select I have shot through sidelocks rifles in my time. It works just fine, and the only way to see if the factory nipple will throw enough spark down is try it. I shot lots of Pyrodex through the T/C factory nipple but then I noticed they are now called stainless steel hotshot nipples.
Actually I have one old Renegade that shoots excellent with Pyrodex...

I have shot a lot ofPyrodex RS in my TC New Englander.I use a hot shot nipple and never had a problem. It also shoots well with PRB and 60gr 777 or 385 Great plains with 80gr 777. The PRB is my fun to shoot load.I never shot at deer with it,but the conical is death to deer.

Well, I am considering the pinnacle if I can find it.
