Meant for blanks. I would not use it to try to pinch pennies with ball.

This new powder is dedicated to the historical reenactor and the value conscious
black powder recreational shooter.
Reenactor Gunpowder loads the same by volume charge as regular grade black powder
This new product is ideal for blank fire in Muskets, Carbines, Pistols and Cannon.
Also suitable for recreational round ball muzzleloaders, where it performs nicely at
low pressures

With 100% black powder ignition, it is reliable with every shot
The way I read it, it's not strictly for blanks but a low cost powder that's good for blanks as well as economical round ball shooting. People who just want their smokepoles to go "boom" don't need Swiss or Olde Eynsford and this low cost powder is good enough for that purpose.
Just like Remington Thunderbolt .22 ammo is good enough for people who just want to spray a lot of lead downrange and don't care about one-hole 50 yard groups, this powder is good enough for people who just want to shoot and aren't looking to win matches. It's a little cheaper than regular Goex or their premium powder.
It won't blow up your gun.

Track of the Wolf's web site claims that this powder is available in only a single granulation and is somewhere between 2F and 3F.
