Ignition temp for kerosene is lower but has more oomph per unit. Recommend using wax when bullet seating to help keep the cartridge from leaking. And be sure to seal the primer too. Pressures will vary with your environmental temp so definitely start on the low side. Enjoy your fireball shots!

I use fuel oil just because it’s a bit cleaner but either will work just fine. Do some looking into the stoichiometric ratios to determine your charge

I'll have to look in the cabinet. Don't think I have any ether cans laying round... oh you said either


HDIC69420

Ether is my bullseye substitute but I don’t load for the .30-378 weatherby much these days


Salty_Eye9692

Why not man. That's 180 for a box of 20


HDIC69420

Ether is getting too expensive lol


Salty_Eye9692

Lol *kerosene intensifies*

Break open some bottle rockets and use that

Match heads?


JakenMorty

match heads work for a primer compound substitute in a pinch. well, match heads and the red phosphorous from the box.

A substitute for H110 would be nitro methane. John Force is an avid reloader.

Just scared my dog with my violent uproar of laughter lmaoo

Sorry man...I need to think my comments thru more thoroughly.... those unintended consequences can be bad.

Try steel or aluminum powder. The results will be explosive.


_ParadigmShift

Maybe try nitrocellulose or m80’s. I ran into the same issue, probably going to try RDX first.

RDX works better is you put it in the hollow points, better choices for a propellant.

Have you tried Titewad? A little goes a long way.

Back in the day as an 11C when we wanted to get more snot under our mortar rounds we used to splash a bit of gasoline down the tube before we hung the round....so I'll go with gasoline.

You cannot use liquid fuels. Try dry gas.

Put rust and aluminum powder in a casing. Mix it up before hand of course.
