That reminds me of when a friend came over....
I had a friend over that does not reload, he mentioned if I was worried about powder "blowing" up?
I just went over to a bottle and poured some outside and stood over it and put a match to it....He ran away worried..!!
I just had to show him it does NOT explode unless its contained and builds up pressure.
Now black powder is a different story.....
He quit asking me questions after that

Lernt when I as little not to be afeard of gunpowder. Gram used to snort it if she ran out of snuff. "Less explosive than pepper" she said.

Hmm...I don't think I have tried that, but will take your word for it.
Heck...Getting out on the main highways are more scary to me with all the log trucks coming over the hill in front of you ON YOUR SIDE..!!!!
That has happened to me several times...Got some larger hills here on the highway that large trucks can hide in out of sight until the last minute. Been many people ran over too. Now that scares me......
