The Bevel Bros in Muzzleblasts reported on this as related to muzzleloaders some months back. No, no pipe bomb. I've done it unintentionally in a front stuffer, and what you will get is lower and inconsistent velocity. I load 577/450 myself: 70 gr Black MZ (still have some) and stuffed with tow. The old cordite rounds were, I believe, filled with kapok. They work fine. No worries. All you're doing is holding the powder in place.
