Which is the smallest listed size of black powder?

Explanation:
Black powder granulations are labeled with F and additional Fs to show size. In this convention, the ordering from smallest to largest is Fg, FFg, FFFg, FFFFg, so the smallest particle size listed is Fg. The extra Fs indicate progressively larger grades in this system, with FFg larger than Fg, and so on. Always use the powder grade specified for your firearm and never mix different granulations.
