You have kegs of black powder and bullets sitting around so you can load those?

They don't sell kegs anymore, it comes in pound and five pound containers.

I also need to get a mold for this size bullet. I only have one drawer for black powder, but I can load this for a couple of Days, non stop.

Sir smithlabs! A couple of days nonstop. That's alot of smoke.

You're right, I need a lot more, should be several weeks at least; but first things first; gotta get moved!

Do you have a fire-proof place to store that gun powder?

My house is brick....Powder is only a danger if it is contained, in a fire it simply burns. They put it in plastic for this reason.

Oh really? well then people shooting kegs of powder on tv doesn't cause an explosion?

Kegs contain the burn enough for a low level boom, but Hollywood always makes the boom huge....

The spurt of smoke on the side of a flintlock is a non-contained powder burn.

Yeah well someone said you were just a big spurt of smoke.
