A powder horn is a container for gunpowder, and was generally created from cow, ox, or buffalo horn. The term may also be used for any personal container for gunpowder, although powder flask is the strictly correct term.
The powder horn was rendered obsolete by the innovations brought about by Hall, Sharps, Spencer and the later development of self-contained cartridges that were developed and marketed successfully by Oliver Winchester, after which manufactured metallic cartridges became standard.
