When I competed seriously in NMLRA patched roundball competition I sifted my black powder before a big match. I had three sifters that were labeled 3f no-go, 3f, and 3f fines. I ended up with a little over 2/3 lb. of very consistent granulated powder, out of a pound can, for the matches.

I shot some unbelievable groups with that sifted powder.
