Ammo powder burning 🔥 

[@shakostarsun]

The slow burn is interesting.

[@RevoZ0]

Because Its a propellant not an explosive powder. If you were to make a firework or some type of flame ignited explosive it will not work it will simply burn slowly. The reason it “explodes” in a gun is because it is ignited by a primer immediately consuming all the powder turning it into gas/smoke/a bit of flame

[@ardogon]

@@RevoZ0don’t forget, it’s also compressed making it ignite all at once

[@zahariburgess3660]

@@RevoZ0it’s more like the shockwave from the primer detonating the rest

[@mikeoneil5741]

confine it and let the pressure build and youll see dramatically different behavoir. (might need a high speed camera)

[@RevoZ0]

@@mikeoneil5741 wrong, smokeless wont work even if its confined. It will not work confined if its flame ignitited, example is cannons and flintlock rifles. It needs a strong percussion cap or primer for it to achieve maximum pressure

[@SgtJones-tz1sq]

So technically the term is “deflagrates” not “burns”. This is a smokeless powder. It is pretty slow. Black powder is faster, and flash powder is super fast. They are referred to as flammable solids under hazmat and not explosives. But if they are contained under pressure, with nowhere for the energy to escape when they deflagrate, boom.

[@NelsonZAPTM]

I came here to use the word defligration, but you beat me to it!

[@kennethpowers8995]

There are plenty of smokeless powders that burn super fast too. Rifle powders like this just tend to be slower burning because they are designed to build up velocity from the long burn since it has the time to do so out of rifle length barrels. Most pistol powders on the other hand flash off very quickly so that they can build their pressure and velocity more quickly being that there typically isn’t much barrel length in handgun calibers. I’m an avid hand loader of multiple calibers and the vast difference between how some of the powders I use burn is very interesting.

[@AlphaSierraJuliet]

That was not what I expected

[@shreyangupta439]

if the primer takes so long to burn, when how does it shoot so fast? i am a bum, please its for information only.

[@yeetasaurus5195]

That's not the primer. It's the gun powder. When it's compressed in a closed space it burns quickly

[@cheekymonkey444]

It doesnt explode until it is contained.

[@Domiano542]

You ain’t lie. Thumbs up

[@rokos.1239]

Fun fact: this is so called european powder because it burns slowly ,but it more powerful. You also have chinese powder which burns quickly ,but less powerful.

[@vitox_pvp6368]

Is this nitrocelulose ?

[@Warsmith_Honsou]

I think with hand gun it opposite.

[@George-tz1cv]

WRONG! It is nitrocellulose based. Sometimes in combination with nitroglycerin. Chinese, European, American powders all can range from fast to slow depending on the intended application. This is smokeless powder. Fireworks use black powder sometimes mixed with powdered metals to create colors when burning. Anyone using tin snips as pliers probably doesn’t know the answer to your question.

[@davidx.1150]

Slow burning powder allows the bullet to accelerate in the barrel, making it more powerful

[@deaftodd]

It burns faster under barrel/chamber pressure. It's a controlled explosion. It takes time to project a bullet without blowing it up. If there is a high explosion, then the bullet's mass won't have enough time to relieve the pressure without blowing up the chamber.

[@blackplauge1334]

It makes sense that the same people to open a cartridge with tin snips would have a torch held together with duck tape

[@Madfabricator]

[@loganshotrod4x464]

That’s rifle powder. Now try PISTOL powder. Burns a hell of a lot faster when it’s under high pressure…

[@CrashRacknShoot]

It burns faster either way. That's why we have burn charts to point to what works for what cartridge.

[@felixthecat265]

What a load of nonsensical comments here.. 1. Nitro powder burn rate depends on pressure. Allow the pressure to build and the burn rate will accelerate. Burn nitro in air and it burns slowly. 2. Propellent burns in a gun, not detonates. The primer simply ignites the propellent. 3. I have burned literally tons of nitro at a time to get rid of it. It produces huge orange flames and great heat, but no bang!

[@fabianalaniz7866]

Freaking slow, black powder burns a lot faster! How does that even work? I mean it burns slow but how does it create enough gas pressure for the projectile to launch?

[@bezalelex31]

The slow burn that effectuates on open air and on a plank IS NOT the same as under pressure inside the chamber. Under pressure it will burn hot and fast to the point of 50,000+ of CPU's (chamber pressure units). 1cpu=14.5 lb hence why exceedingly important to never have an obstructed barrel.

It's CUP for Copper Units of Pressure. There isn't a direct correlation between CUP and PSI.

It burns fast when its compressed in the casing

[@austinlockwood8818]

One factor that speeds up combustion is pressure. Higher pressure increases the burn rate

[@SolaChristus1776]

@@austinlockwood8818 like air pressure?

[@austinlockwood8818]

@@SolaChristus1776 Yeah, like air pressure, but in a bullet its not going to be air pressure. It would be gas pressure from the gasses released from the powder burning. The gas is trying to expand and the walls of the casing and barrel are confining it so the pressure increases. The extra pressure pushes the burning particles closer together so they can transfer energy to nearby particles quicker and cause them to burn

PROPANE TANK! PROPANE TANK!

[@TheDarkRodent]

Faster burning powders cause pressure spikes to happen more quickly. This can be a problem for heavy bullets, which don't have time to get started before the pressure spike occurs. Slower burning powders allow pressure to climb gradually, which helps move the bullet before the pressure peaks. Which is why pistol loads use fast powder. The projectiles are generally lighter than rifle loads and the barrel is too short for a slow burning powder. Rifle rounds use slower burning powder as the projectiles are generally heavier and the longer barrel allows for peak pressure/velocity at the muzzle.

[@CrashRacknShoot]

You're almost halfway there. Bullet weight has little to do with it.

[@TheDarkRodent]

@@CrashRacknShoot You're not even halfway there if you believe that.

[@CrashRacknShoot]

@@TheDarkRodent oh? Is that right? My man, I've been reloading for years. Tell me more about how a 9mm has a lighter bullet than a 5.56? How about a .40 or .45 having a lighter bullet than a .308? Hell, many of the bullets even weigh the same or damn close between different calibers. Bullet weight has nothing to do with it. Pistols use faster powder so it can burn as completely as possible due to a generally shorter barrel length and have proper pressures to cycle the action. Rifles use slower for much the same reason. It allows the pressure to remain high enough to cycle the action through a much longer barrel. A fast pistol powder would either 1. Burn out in a rifle before the bullet leaves the barrel, 2. Pressure spike too high while trying to force the bullet out potentially turning the barrel and action into a pipe bomb, 3. If it did manage to force the bullet through, it would be extremely slow. Think of it like octane in fuel. The higher octane = slower burning powder. You get a resistance to burning so quickly which allows more power to generate over a longer time.

[@Johnharrison2535]

Yo mi man! I was doing the same thing you are and that shell went off in my hand! Just saying if there is someone standing next to you and it goes off possibly injured or killed!!! I was lucky only lost feeling in my right hand and the person next to me has a 22 round in his shoulder!!! Be safe with live ammunition!

[@bezalelex31]

BS!!!

[@mwilson70201]

Let me guess. The slow burn ensures that the thrust is maintained throughout the rifle barrel. A faster burning powder would exhaust it's power too quickly and the resistance of the barrel would take away from the velocity a slower burn would yield. Just guessing, I'm no expert, jusr applying a bit of logic. I would greatly aporeciate a reply from someone who knows the actual reasoning behind this.

[@shaska762]

I'm not the expert you're looking for, but from what I know, that is basically it. A slower burning powder will keep increasing gas pressure for longer, which is perfect for a rifle. A faster burning powder will create a lot of pressure in a short time and will lose pressure just as fast, perfect for shorter barrels, like a pistol.

[@mikocap21]

BP burns faster than smokeless in open air. In a barrel, different story.
