> What is touched upon, but never treated as such, is so-called "brown
> powder", an intermediate between BP and modern smokeless powders, that was
> used for a very brief period during the late 1800's. This was at the time
> held to be more effective, i.e. it was said give higher muzzle-velocity

> This little book is a good source of info for the curious, and an "how-to"

> It should never be forgotten that all Black Powder mills ever started in
the
> twin kingdoms of Denmark-Norway up until the early 1900's ALL blew up,
> sooner or later. Make no mistake about it, handling Black Powder is
> potentially very, very dangerous, so be careful!
