Black Powder vs Smokeless Powder: some education! 

Wow

Crazy

apples, yes

Noice

@EMILIANO BARRIOS CHAVEZ It's called a joke

'If I'm going to load half a case... which I don't'

hickok wasn't born until after the mongol conquest of Asia Minor

All that on top of potential family or friends in opposing side.

It was all worth it. Slavery is evil

@@corpsefoot758 civil war wasn't about slavery....it was about state's rights of the southern states

@@jyotiradityadeka2905 I’m going to hope that your name means you’re a foreigner, because otherwise there is NO excuse for any American to be this dumb and wrong. Go look up the “Articles of Secession” some time. See if your brain is truly developed enough to spot the word “slavery” inside any of them, and also how many times it is clearly mentioned.

@@jyotiradityadeka2905 since that's your opinion do you have anything else on it?

Actually, about the volume increase when it comes to the temperature of a gas, it is actually measured in kelvin, the absolute temperature. So let's say that a gas goes from 100 kelvin to 200 kelvin, then it just doubled its volume. Farenheit and celcius are not absolute temperature.

The term optimum is relative. Residue can be more or less according to several factors. High humidity can contribute to the burn rate and the amount of fouling left behind. The amount of moisture in the powder is another variable. T

I can load for less fouling by increasing pressures. I do it with a hot primer, a heavy bullet, a good grade of powder and some compression. The right combination will shoot pretty clean and give good accuracy. John Davis Jax fl

Black powder will combust-- the charcoal burns with the saltpeter to generate a lot of heat and some gas. Smokeless powder is nitrocelluouse-- it is a chemically bound chain of nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon and oxygen. It exothermically decomposes at the molecular level, generating a lot of gas and then some heat. People need to understand that black powder and smokeless powder are two completely different substances that undergo two completely different chemical reactions.

Celsius and kelvin have the same scale for increments, so no problem with that…

+Griff Yeah I bet that bug had an interesting time just a few minutes later.

That's what the blacks are good at.

@@rock3tcatU233 stfu

Huh? Why? So the enemy could still target them through the smoke?

Vincent Lok smoke is white, you goof

Vincent Lok So they wouldn't fire on their own lines.

wille1811 White or black, it's still hard to see through smoke! OK, I can see that firing on your own troops is harder when your uniforms are bright. I think back in those days, the idea of hiding from enemies wasn't very prevalent. I mean, they'd line up and shoot at each other from 100 yards!

Vincent Lok yes but white smoke and bright uniforms melts into eachother like a camo

I noticed that too!LOL

I actually breathed a sign of relief.

People were a their keyboards, ready to chastise him.

Not true. The simple proof is the difference in burn rate between black match fuse (string coated in black powder) and quickmatch ( black match encased in a thick paper sheath). Even light confinement makes a huge difference.

Smokeless powder

Yes.

For Leone, first comes art style and fantasy, then realism and accuracy.

I've been watching lots of Spaghetti Westerns, and it does look like BP in some cases and no smoke in others. They all use the same gun shot noise though! There are lots more SWs than the Eastwood ones.

@@hannibalburgers477 And let's face it, whatever can be said for realism, Leone's movies are damn entertaining.

Yes

You really had me there!

Emerge from the gun smoke like demons, as Sabaton put it about the Great Northern War...Imagine recovering from the shock of a fusillade, being unable to see clearly for your return fire, then having your enemy, fully reloaded, barely visible in the clearing smoke ready for a second shot. I consider myself a pretty tough guy, but even I'd be more than a little tempted to run like hell. Officers had a tough job back then instilling discipline.

@@SimuLord or all you can see is smoke and hear the hoof falls of the cavalry charging you

+Morten Schultz What do you think the odds of the containers of powders igniting are? Though I agree with you that one shouldn't take chances, I think the odds of those containers going off are astronomical.

I dont care how low the odds are, if that amount ever blew, Hickok and cameraman would be splattered all over the range.

his fingers could have powder or the table, and the fire could somehow get to the top of the bottle

Gia: Perhaps...but the containers were sealed!!!

The containers are light plastic or card board or light tin designed not to explode, if for some reason the powder caught it would burn like a torch but not blow up. Designed that way for safety.

Using hot soapy water to clean black powder pistol...but what do you use to clean black powder out of a modern cowboy shooter ?? Water ???

I have developed a new cartridge for muzzleloading rifles which is loaded from the muzzle but ejects itself from the barrel after use and is non-corrosive. This product sets a new standard in safety and reliability for muzzleloader ammunition in the same way shotgun shells are standardized for use in shotguns. Shotshells have a load of shot and powder which produce a safe pressure in shotguns manufactured by many different companies. The pressure produced by this cartridge can be designed to work safely in the muzzleloaders produced by the various manufacturers. It would also greatly help new muzzleloader shooters with safety, and it would also give them a product which will not destroy the barrel of their muzzleloader due to corrosive residue. Those who say smokeless powder cannot be used in a muzzleloader may not know “Blackhorn 209” is 83% smokeless powder, based on the MSD sheet for the product. Therefore, the claim that smokeless powder cannot be used safely in a muzzleloader falls apart very quickly. This cartridge could also be loaded with BH209 or a similar formulation in states which do not allow "smokeless" powder during muzzleloader season, in the same way the breechloading "Firestick" cartridge is now used in the "Nitrofire" muzzleloader. This would be a "Muzzlestick" cartridge which would work in thousands of other modern muzzleloaders, which cannot use the "Firestick" cartridge. This cartridge can also be removed from inline muzzleloaders by removing the breechplug. I am now looking for a company willing to mass produce this new cartridge for the market. I would greatly appreciate it if you would pass this information along to those you know who may be interested in this new product. A link is found below which demonstrates this new product.

@@SpotterVideo nice, sir!

"Experts"

Lol pyrodex is nothing like smokeless it's a bp substitute with extremely similar properties to bp. It can be sold without having special explosive licenses (like bp)and is why most chain stores stock it.

could you tell me how to get a job in gun manufacturing companies?

Could you reply ❤️🏹💘

@@sankaracchupersonalgood8174 you got a degree?

+Julian Blow john is his son

evand848 meaning if John adopted me I would have the perfect granddad.

ohhhhhhhhh

+Julian Blow if i had a grandfather like him sure as hell i wouldnt be watching gunpowder from urine video :/ . I never fired a real gun in my life despite i love guns so much . I cant afford going to range either it s too expensive in my country .

Hickok said once that, if you grandmom is a super model, he can help you being your grandad.

did you went to forest?

Come to America and visit a National Park!

Kontol yeet

I doubt it would cycle

Good luck cleaning that gas system. The thing'll never fire correctly again.

I did it and everything worked perfectly.

+Ramses. My range wouldn't let me do that. Not because of the smoke.. They have excellent scrubbers. It's due to the fire/sparks that come out of the barrel when firing. They consider that a major fire risk. That's why I bought a 45 Colt cartridge-conversion cylinder for my blackpowder (muzzleloading) revolvers. That allows me to use the gun at their range, and it also takes a lot less cleaning afterwards.

Ramses. Just got to clean it well after shooting as black powder is corrosive.

Hell yeah

thats cool

+Ray C. Yep.

+John Affleck Actually, yep. Black powder and smokeless are totally different. If you load black into a cartridge, you either fill the whole case with powder or if you use a reduced load you mix the black powder with something like cream of wheat to bulk up the charge so it fills the whole case. Simply filling the space with something like cotton will not work. Stop perpetuating this ignorance you claim. Crack a book every now and then.

Actually amongst reenactors and shooters, we do differentiate on accounts that loading the wrong one can blow up your weapon

That's because you Brits haven't been allowed to own guns since guns still used black powder
