Can black powder guns fire real bullets?
By all means, yes they can. If you are referring to modern bullets or self contained cartridges the answer is no. Black powder guns fall into two major categories, muzzle loading and black powder cartridge, With muzzle loaders the powder is poured in the barrel topped with a patched lead ball or bullet, and ignited by an external cap or flint and steel. BP cartridges are much like modern bullets with the exception of the powder. Black powder burns at a slower rate thus the pressure within the case is less.. Modern "smokeless powder" burns rapidly when contained within the shell casing and produces higher pressures and bullet velocities.
