butch Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Has anyone heard of Schuetzen reenactor powder and if so would it be suitable for lift and where would it fall on the scale of size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dynomike1 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Not sure but i think it has Flour mixed in with it for more flame and smoke out the end of the barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubba153 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 It's a mix of all 3 of Shuetzen's grades (1Fg, 2Fg, and 3Fg). Basically a mix of sizes from 0.3 mm to 1.7 mm.

butch Posted January 13, 2013 Author Share Posted January 13, 2013 Thanks for the info but would anyone use this powder for lift? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psyco_1322 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 (edited) It should work just fine for lifting shells. Interesting the MSDS says they use a 75:10:15 formula, where there is less charcoal and more sulfur. Edited January 13, 2013 by psyco_1322 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
