This is not as bad as it sounds, but it was a bit of a surprise. My local inside range has a number of cement dividers which separates the range into 3 sections. They also allow black powder and usually places them adjacent to the left side of the last divider. As I was shooting, I suddenly noticed the flicker of a fire. It appears a build up of unburned black powder had accumulated in one of the expansion grooves of the black powder lane and it was burning like a classic black powder line fuse. One of the range staff showed up and put out the fire, but it was still amusing to watch the incident unfold.
