RADFORD, Va. – Alliant Powder introduces Black MZ™, an innovative black powder replacement that withstands moisture and greatly reduces cleaning time and intensity. Black MZ is designed for all black powder firearms and can be found on store shelves now.

Stay At-the-Ready
Muzzleloading takes a toll on black powder firearms. Alliant Powder’s new Black MZ helps maximize shooting performance by resisting moisture and adverse weather conditions. Hunters can stay loaded and ready in the field for days, only needing to insert a primer to get into the action. Black MZ won’t clump, corrode or fall victim to Mother Nature and helps keep a shooter’s attention focused on their trophy.

Maximum Performance, Minimum Headaches
Black MZ was engineered to deliver dependable ignition, lower barrel pressure and increased velocities. The clean-burning ignition of Black MZ is virtually non-corrosive, greatly diminishes fouling and offers more shots between cleaning sessions. Shooters can maximize their trigger time and avoid frequent and time-consuming cleaning. Wedged slugs, grimy barrels, stuck seater dies and dwindling accuracy are greatly reduced by Black MZ.
