    Another one here anxiously waiting the call for pick up from Ammo Supply!
    Sometimes it is taken, sometimes it is not. But there is no bargain, for here, what is,
    is what must be

    Will these blowup with a .54 round ball from a flintlock rifle using 80 grains of FFF blackpowder?

    Does that go 2000 feet per second?

    No, I doubt it shoots that high. I would suspect 80 grains of FFF black powder with a .54 calibre round ball (230 grains) and a 24 inch barrel would bring me into the range of 1,400+ fps muzzle velocity. Out at 100 yards, I'd suspect it would drop down to 900 fps. Does that mean it's not enough to ignite this tannerite?

    No it won't. You need a velocity of about 2200 FPS or faster to set it off. At least that is what the other brands need.
    No such thing as too much ammunition or toilet paper...

    Approx FPS is 2000 FPS but in time Gryphon will be able to provide us with more specific requirements for detonation!

    We should be getting a shipment of targets on Monday/Tuesday - YAHOOOOOO! More will be following in approx 3 weeks. We will not have any spare 1/2 lb targets, although 1 lb cases are still available. For anyone wishing to order the 1/2 lb targets, we expect to ship by the end of August.

    Order in for a case. I was there for the product testing day and these targets are awesome! Every time we shot one I could feel the compression in my chest.
    Buy em cheap, stack em deep!

    I have a question regarding these targets, can you take a 1 lb container and divide it up into say four 1/4 lb containers? Or is it something that you absolutely shouldn't mess with?
