To load a black powder gun, first, ensure the firearm is pointed in a safe direction and the hammer is at half-cock. Measure the appropriate amount of black powder using a powder measure and pour it into the barrel. Next, insert a pre-measured projectile (such as a lead ball or bullet) followed by a wadding, if necessary, to keep the projectile in place. Finally, use a ramrod to seat the projectile firmly against the powder, and then prime the pan or add a percussion cap, depending on the type of black powder gun.
