Some blank ammo can have very high pressures. In the Army they had helmets with huge holes in them caused by blank 30-06 ammo. They also took a piece of 1/2" plywood and blew a huge hole in it with an M1 blank. They were trying to teach us not to kill each other in training with blanks. I was very impressed by the pressures of the blanks and would repeat Mykeal's advice. Don't shoot anything in a BP gun but BP. Ever!
