it turns out i have about 1/2 tin 2f, the can says dupont gunpowder delaware. yup, i can grind it down as recommended above, no problem. as for the type of flintlock, i was looking on gunbroker and other sites. i am not married to tradition and find the breech plugs in my inlines easy to use and yes i did own a cap lock years back. i find the traditions pa pellet and tc firestorm interesting, the reviews are negative for pellet use, but i like powder to tune my loads. there are not many threads out there on the use of black mz in flintlocks but what i have found is positive. i bid on a pa pellet last night but could not make the reserve, patience.
