[QUOTE="ldp4570, post: 691443, member: 5168"] Actually Black Powder is not classified as a small arms gunpowder, but as an explosive with a 1.1D rating. This complicates the ability of commercial dealers to store properly and for insurance to cover in case of fire. This also creates issues with common carriers to transport. Depending on the quantity stored or transported certain safeguards have to be in effect. This is one reason most dealers don't or won't stock it. Pyrodex doesn't carry this classification, it is listed as with most other powders a 1.4S. [/QUOTE]
