Throckmorton,23149 43 Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 I got to thinking a few minutes ago.....boy my head hurts!! ...that I have a couple of pounds of 2F on hand for a smokepole,and with July 4th upon us,a few..a dozen?? ... bp blanks would sure get the neighborhood dogs to sounding off . EDITED.it's 2F i have,not 3 F. only thing is,I"m not sure how much bp to use,and would just a wad of tp stuffed in there be ok? to make them go BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM !!!!!!!!!!!! ??

The Shoer 27979 174 Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 all I use is about half the BP i use in a regular shot shell then floral foam on top of that, that way everything burns away when you shot the blanks. That's the way I don't it Link to post Share on other sites
Throckmorton,23149 43 Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 since I don't shoot bp shotshells,how much 'zactly should I start with for a nice boom? I have bp mesures on hand. Link to post Share on other sites
Presidio 2 Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 http://www.tbullock.com/bpsg.html Scroll down a little to the tables for blank loads. Link to post Share on other sites
Throckmorton,23149 43 Posted July 2, 2011 Author Share Posted July 2, 2011 Presidio,what I see it this. 1 dram = 27.34375 grains = 1.772 grams. and 12 guage = 6 drams,so I'll do the math . Thanks !! Hmm,think I'll invesetigate futher,that math makes me nerveous.It would be over a hundred grains of powder. no way,Jose'. Link to post Share on other sites
Presidio 2 Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 That's why I sent the PM. Actually, 20-25 grains will give you an addequate display. Link to post Share on other sites
