Were all the guns your dad built flint locks ?Walkabout is just following his normal contrarian tendencies. Don't feed the troll.
There are probably 10x the number of "modern" muzzleloaders sold, but I strongly suspect the traditional muzzleloaders account for 90% of the powder used. The in-lines and other modern stuff are likley dragged out of the closet and shot twice before deer season, once during and then put up for another year.
you'll never see pyrodex in these....
