How much gunpowder was used in a musket?

A typical musket used during the 18th and early 19th centuries would generally require about 60 to 120 grains of gunpowder per shot, depending on the specific type and caliber of the musket. This translates to approximately 4 to 8 grams of gunpowder. The exact amount could vary based on the desired range and power of the shot, as well as the type of ammunition used.
