Thanks Klaus. I will get some then.
Its easier to get than P grade or Swiss.

It's been a long while since I've used WANO powder, but I came to possess about 5 or 6 pounds of it. I shoot exclusively 3f or P and that is all that I had to compare other than some GOEX 3f that I didn't but on a couple of occasions compare. The folks I got my black powder from here in Hawaii brought in mostly GOEX and Elephant Black Powder. Others that I associate with that have the availability of Swiss love it beyond measure, so I can't compare it as I've never shot swiss... but I'd be suggesting they are two classes of comparison for sure by several degrees.
This powder was used by the International Blackpowder Shoot that was held in Hawaii some years ago and left here for transportation considerations and that is how I was able to be in possession of some. It is a "weaker" powder than either GOEX or Elephant at the time I shot it but I had no problems with velocities over the chronograph that were notable and so in my opinion, and for me, consistency and variation are good indicators of a powders worth and I found nothing that would cause me to not use it.
Much Aloha,
