I found that using coarse black powder is much more pleasant than using medium. This didn't kick too badly at all, quite mild actually, but using medium turns it into a spiteful *****. It's back off ticket now and I don't shoot it anymore, but it was a lot of fun for a few years.
85gr of 2Fg.

I made a few 80gr rounds when I started, I now only use 65gr. Too painful on my old joints
