The Firing Line Forums - View Single Post - Gee, maybe I should use some of that "smokeless blackpowder"...

I've been told that there is a "smokeless" blackpowder on the market by a coworker. From my understanding, all that's new is the Clean Shot and Clear Shot that are simply less corrosive and fouls the action to a lesser degree.

Am I missing anything here? Is there actually a smokeless powder intended for use in blackpowder firearms?

Thanks.
