So I have a friend who is an avid shooter and he gave me a "mixed bag" of smokeless powder. Basically, leftovers from reloading.
I have 260g of the stuff and I'm experimenting with it for possible recovery system uses.
I started by placing a little bit in a folded piece of paper and lighting it to see how energetic it is. Not very.
Then a small contained charge of about .5g. Not too impressive.
Then a 5g charge taped up. Still not sure.
My question: How do you guys contain this stuff to make a better "boom"?
I have to put a charge in a rocket to see, but I'm not too impressed so far.
