Pioneer Powder
How much gun powder would a Pioneer family need for a 30 day journey in the 1870′s?
Pounds please. and lets just say they have 2 basic rifles.
Actually 1 pound would probably last about 4-6+ months.
PRIMARY use would be hunting.
(6000 grains to pound, 30-100 grains per shot depending on rifle caliber, gives 60 shots minimum!)
