[QUOTE="tack, post: 1260405, member: 13735"] Messed with it a lot in my teens and twenties. Magnesium or aluminum powder and Potassium nitrate with a little sulfur. Me thinks commercial stuff uses Potassium perchlorate? I have no doubt it's sensitive. I have little doubt too that it's safe enough to handle in small quantities. Besides, the 50mg in a single black cat may be enough for the pan anyhow. I don't think I'll really try it anyway. Don't need the flash, just need fire. I'd be considerin' this thread done. Thanks everyone for the info. I need to find out more about buckhorn 209 and IMR White Hots. Maybe I'm not done; how many different BP subs are out there nowadays anyway? I'll just use tripple F in the pan until I either make some fine powder or buy some somewhere. Shoot, as cheap as Back Creek Gun Shop is compared to Bass Pro, it won't take very many cans of powder to make up for the HAZMAT fee. Maybe I can find another fellow or two to go in with me and buy a bunch. [/QUOTE]
