400 grains of cannon grade powder in an Al cartridge. The top of the cartridge opened at 4 milisecond after ignition. Total burn required 93 milliseconds.

OK thanks. If there was some comparison or some principle demonstrated I missed it. Don't get me wrong, I love to see powder burning, just not sure if there was a theme here I missed.
Next time please show the smoke plume rising.

John,
Parrot-Cannon is our resident scientist. He pops in here every once in a while with this sort of stuff. It may seem strange...but be patient when he is finished he comes up some amazing stuff. I think he is looking at powder burn rates and pressures....can't wait until we see what he has come up with now?
