Most local areas have city ordinances that allow only 50lbs max to be stored in a home. I never keep that much around, because I've personally detonated 10lbs of black powder at an outdoor demo range. Secured inside a home, that much depending on location could take out a 2000+ square foot home. Its the reason I listed it in my original post and how to store it. The biggest problem with black powder isn't storage as much as temp change, as it tends to draw mosture to it. Make sure where ever you have it stored put some dessicant in with it.</p></blockquote><p></p>
