well guess I am out voted on taking a little time off.


first, I did an burn test. took an lighter. rolling papers, tissue paper, and tracing paper.

the rolling paper and tissue papers burned at the same rate but the tissue paper burned completely, rolling papers left burning embers.

tracing paper, 30secs to burn. guessing there is wax on the paper.

tracing paper won. cheaper and burn complete and what is left goes out before it hits the ground.

test was done with my knight usak 50grs, tc maxi hunter 385gr, win #11.

first did not even open up the little powder packet up. 2 caps to set it off with an hang fire on the second cap. no go and went to open and pour.

why did I do this, I figured how to make them for an friend to use with his bp 6 shooters and wanted to see if they would ignite with the powder in the paper.

note: the tc maxi hunters are loose as can be in both my 50's
