Default Black Powder Substitutes for .45-70
I'm about to restart loading for .45-70 after a few year hiatus. I'm using a 405 grain hollow base cast bullet.

I used to use a product called "Black Canyon", a BP substitute that was non-corrosive. Though it smelled a little strange it gave me good accuracy and made a nice cloud of white smoke. I can't seem to find it and was wondering what if anything has taken its place.
