Great videos. Made two batches one using cotton wood and the other using red cedar for charcoal. Both powders worked great in a small cannon and will test and chrono in revolvers vs Pyrodex. Used 100% denatured alcohol and seems to work well and dry out quickly. Used Harbor Freight tumbler and .440 lead balls.

I sure liked your videos and look forward to making my own. I did want to add my 2 cents if worth knowing, there are hardwoods and softwood. There are also varying degrees of each soft and hard based on their densities so woods like cottonwood, poplar/popular, red maple, silver maple and even birch could be used as their densities allow for uniform burning. Any more and your fire will require a ton of more energy to burn through. I'm eager to try some pine and Douglas fir near me. They produce shiny charcoal in leftover fires. Good luck in more of this.

Thank You, this is wonderful information to me. I have followed your posts and have begun making my own gun powder. I have tested mine to try to determine how it stacks up against Goex. By shooting through my chronograph with Goex and homemade powder with different calibers and bullet design I find my powder to require about 30 % more to near the Goex velocities. I use willow bark and will try to find silver maple, (southern Colorado). I think I can make better. I have not additives.

You can actually dry everything at 50 degrees in the oven for a few hours as well.. and black powder. I would be careful though if I a had a propane oven. So this advice is for electrical ovens only. I use it all the time before and after grinding. Especially if you grind in a ball mill outside as you are! And I'm talking Celsius. I've dried up to 75c but would never go higher. Make a habit of drying your powders before use to get consistent results. Even Tupperware let's in moisture. You could also use a desecant that collects moisture.

You can order desiccent in large bags. Just put a couple small packs, or large pack in to your ingredients if they are to be stored. Work great. Even after you have made your powder and storing it, drop a small packet of desiccent into the container to keep the moisture down. You won't have to heat it over a direct heat.

Charcoal, nitrate and sulphur absorb moisture at different rates, so will be differently damp if left for months (according to your weather!). This usually means that the charcoal takes in more water that the nitrate so 15% charcoal when weighed with lots of moisture will give you only about 10% of dry charcoal in the mix giving you poor product.

From what I understand, Goex powder is lightly coated with graphite. Other than it giving the powder a nice shiny black appearance, would there be any actual benefit to adding a little finely powdered graphite to the mix? I think I’ve also heard somewhere that the small amount of graphite also helps to dampen the effects of static electricity on the powder (less clingy), although I’m not 100% on that.

So what should I do to make a historically accurate 17th century musket powder for a .75 caliber matchlock? I'm wanting to do a accuracy test for our channel with the our matchlock however the original 12 apostles carried 175 grains of powder and I'm pretty sure that that's a much lower quality powder than what we use nowadays.

Yes, that sounds like poor quality to require a charge of 175 gr. This recipe would be correct for the 1700's that I use. Seems I came a crossed the different blends used from the 1400's on to the 1700's. If I can find it, will send it your way.

Great info! I'm in an apartment, so I'll have to mill at a friend's house, so a shorter mill time of the full mixture would be beneficial. Have you ever tried milling the ingredients separately (+/- 12 hrs) to make a fine powder beforehand? Would that facilitate a shorter mill time with the full mixture? That way I could do most of the milling in my apartment safely. Do you think that could work?
