Along with the building season, the Winter months bring on the testing season as well. This testing season I will hope to find alternative methods for ejection charges that will keep me legal within the eyes of the ATF, without having to get a LEUP.
On another list I am following, there is some discussion on this subject, so I thought I would re-open it here on the Forum.
I have Pyrodex P (pistol), and I will be looking into some smokeless powders as well from local gun shops to see what my options are.
Along with ejection charges, the e-match must be taken into concideration as my favorite oxrals are on the ATF's hit list. On the top of this "to be tested" list of items to try are the forever available Christmas tree light bulbs:
There has been debate about the fragile nature of the filament in a Christmas tree light bulb, but I have found some methods that help protect the filament, and make them very useful. I have not tested these methods yet, that is what I hope to do this Winter.
What might this group suggest for smokeless powders, or other powders that are not on the ATF list, that I might look into testing?
What tests have others here on the Forum tried in order to obtain alternatives to black powder?
where there is a will, there is a way...
