Welcome aboard...lots of stuff here. Learn something almost every day here and I've been playing with black powder for 50+ years. :thumbsup:
Just to give you an idea of where black powder can go in law enforcement, long time pal worked for Richardson P.D. many moons ago when all LEOs toted wheel guns. Charley touched one off in a concrete, multi-story parking garage one night. Somehow, one of his black powder reloads got in his duty ammo. His Colt New Service was in .45 Colt and the hammer dropped on 40 grains of FFg with a 250 grain SWC! Charley told me the thing sounded like a 75 mm pack howitzer, lit the place up like a strobe light and made a smoke cloud you could hide a VW van behind. Point being, the perp was frozen in place, standing in his own puddle of brake fluid! :wink: Tell your friends! Thought you'd enjoy a rather interesting story! :haha: Welcome again!
