Cant hunt with the fmj here but we do shoot it up at the range.

So the cannon ball scene in the movie sahara is fake?

civil war cannon ball exploded that ol chopper killing the bad guy.....

In Pyro, we learn thru chemistry that components break down into useless compositions in say 100 years or so, including the BP we make, so whats the diff here?

Or are we doing something to it when we make it makes it last longer? or maybe how it is stored? or.....
