jrin0630 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Does someone know approximately how many 3/8" pumped Tiger Tail stars would go into a 3" ball shell? You can assume the stars are placed around each hemi up to the rim, leaving just a void for the burst charge. I'm trying to determine how much Tiger Tail comp (using 3/8 pumped stars) would go into a single 3" shell. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tradami Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 The simplest way would be to make one unless we have a math guru who wants to compute it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Probably going to depend on the actual finished dia of the stars. Make plenty and see what's left, store the rest safely (use one or two as a rising tail.). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nater Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Probably close to 100-150 stars. (educated guess). Not all comps are equal, but 3" shells will use around 80-100 grams of stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWJ Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 I agree with nater, I use about 140 in a 3" shell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
