Blackhorn 209 Powder Available In Stock
Blackhorn 209 powder is a low residue, high performance propellant made for muzzleloaders and black powder cartridges. It is engineered to consistently shoot at higher velocities and with greater accuracy than any other muzzleloader powder available today. In fact, if you compare our benefits with other powders, you will quickly see that Blackhorn 209 absolutely smokes the competition.











Gus –
Because there is no foul-brooding or massive carbon buildup altering the barrel dimensions between shots, my point of impact never shifts. I can practice all day at the range with total confidence in my zero.
Brock Hansen –
No hangfires, no scrubbing between shots, and no wondering if a damp morning ruined your charge. This powder gives centerfire-like reliability to a primitive weapon. It is the best investment a muzzleloader hunter can make.
Frank Callahan –
Note to beginners: make sure you use a breech plug explicitly designed for loose black powder and hot 209 primers (like Federal Bor Lock or CCI 209M). When set up correctly, hangfires and misfires become a thing of the past.
Snyder –
Paired Blackhorn 209 with Barnes T-EZ bullets, and my inline rifle shoots like a centerfire match gun. I am consistently getting 1-inch groups at 150 yards. The shot-to-shot consistency is truly remarkable.
Masterson –
Bullets slide down the barrel easily.
With standard black powder, the barrel gets so choked with fouling that seating a third or fourth bullet requires immense force. Blackhorn 209 leaves so little residue that sabots slide down smoothly every single time.
Peter Hoffman –
Yes, it costs more per ounce than generic pellets or loose powder, and you have to pay the online hazmat fee. But when you factor in the saved cleaning time, the hyper-accuracy, and the reliability on a trophy hunt, it pays for itself.
Henderson –
If you own a modern inline muzzleloader, this is the definitive gold standard. It maximizes the rifle’s design, keeps your hands clean at the bench, and ensures a clean, ethical harvest in the field. Absolutely phenomenal product.
Meyer –
With older powders, I had to swab the bore after every single shot just to seat the next bullet. With Blackhorn 209, I can shoot 10 to 15 rounds consecutively at the bench with absolutely no drop in accuracy or struggle loading the next projectile.
Bruce Woodward –
Many Western states ban the use of pellets or optics during muzzleloader seasons, requiring loose powder. This is the absolute best loose powder on the market. It gives you maximum velocity while keeping you perfectly legal.
Barrett –
The extra velocity boost from this powder flattens out the rainbow-like trajectory typical of muzzleloaders. It turns a stressful 200-yard shot into a highly confident, ethical harvest.
Garrison –
Ran a 5-shot string over my chronograph. The standard deviation was incredibly tight. That level of velocity consistency is exactly why this powder dominates the long-range muzzleloader shooting circuits.
Benjamin Koch –
The best part about this powder is that you don’t need boiling water or specialized black powder solvents. Standard oil-based gun cleaners (like Hoppe’s No. 9) cut right through the residue. Cleaning my inline rifle now takes five minutes.
Lawson –
I had a half-used jug sitting in my climate-controlled gun safe for over two years. Took it out this season, worked up a load, and it performed flawlessly with the exact same ignition speeds as day one.
Dale Buchanan –
New batch performs exactly like the old one.
I was worried when I ordered a new jug online after running out of my old supply. Tested the new lot over the chronograph, and the speeds matched my historical logbook perfectly. Alliant’s quality control is top-tier.
Luke Becker –
Traditional black powder will rust a barrel out in a heartbeat if you don’t clean it immediately. While I still clean my rifle promptly, Blackhorn 209 is non-corrosive, giving me total peace of mind if I can’t clean it until the morning after a hunt.
Adam Bauer –
Traditional black powder drinks moisture out of the air like a sponge, causing misfires. Blackhorn 209 is virtually non-hygroscopic. It handles humid morning hunts flawlessly without clumping or losing ignition power.
Andrew Miller –
None of my local big-box stores ever have this in stock when hunting season approaches. Ordering online was seamless. The tracking was accurate, and the container arrived perfectly sealed and heavily padded to protect the granules.
Matthew Fischer –
The uniform, hollow-granule design flows perfectly through my volumetric powder measure. Unlike clumsy pellets that limit you to 50-grain increments, this lets me fine-tune my loads down to the exact grain for maximum performance.
Chase –
I used to leave the range looking like a chimney sweep from handling greasy patches and soot-covered pellets. This powder burns so clean that my hands, clothes, and range bags stay perfectly spotless.
Earl Montgomery –
Unlocks the full potential of my CVA.
Modern inline muzzleloaders are built to handle higher pressures and cleaner burns. Using old-school pellets in a high-end rifle is like putting regular gas in a racecar. Blackhorn 209 completely unlocks the gun’s true capabilities.
Hank –
Traditional powders create a massive cloud of white smoke that blinds you from seeing the animal’s reaction. This powder produces significantly less smoke, allowing me to instantly track the deer’s flight path through my scope.
Wayne Fitzpatrick –
Grab it online whenever you see it.
This stuff sells out fast as soon as fall approaches. I finally found it in stock online, paid the hazmat fee, and ordered a couple of jugs. It arrives well-padded, completely sealed, and saves me from driving to five different stores.
