I have 2 pounds of old Curtis Harvey, shotgun, musket powder...you folks think its worth tryin in cartridge ?.maybe 70-75 grains ?.I have settled on 75 grains 2-F goex...and realized I have this stuff too..need to shoot it up.45/70. I also have 2,000 winchester pistol primers and 1,000 magnum pistol primers to use up, I got in a trade, but dont load for pistol.any harm in using these in the Pedersoli sharps ?

Harpman:

If still in the original can(s), you could probably swap that old C & H powder to a collector for several times as much modern Swiss. Post it on one of the Black Powder boards and see if anyone bites.
