Transporting smokeless powder

[bibatoad]

Anyone know specifics of transporting powder in a private vehicle? I want to bring some from Dad's place to the farm. More curious than anything. Thanks.

Safer than transporting fuel, just do it

Yes, drive keep your nose clean, obey all traffic laws, and most importantly keep your mouth shut about gun powder….

Hmm. Makes you wonder what the legal allowable limit is for transporting toilet paper? It’s also a flammable product.

And if transporting in excess of 20 lbs of used toilet paper is a dangerous goods placard required.

What sort of a question is this? Like WTaF?

Hey, OP, you know when your mommy told you there were no stupid questions? Well she lied.

Smokeless powder is no more dangerous than the cardboard box the powder cans come in.

how many pounds are we talking about

Does it matter? The quantities any normal enthusiast reloader would have on hand would never exceed any transport regulations.

Smokeless powder is no more dangerous than a cardboard box or anything made of paper. Smokeless powder in the OEM container is considerably less flammable than a cardboard box.

Oh boy. A hypothetical question brings out the winners here.
Edit. I asked a question about quantity. The powder in question was already moved when I posted the question. I had 2 cedar trunks in the back of pickup and wife asked me how much of this sh!t we were allowed to have in truck and I didn't know. I didn't ask for driving instructions, routes to take or whether I needed to advertise my cargo or opinions on my activity. Quantity only.
