Anything is possible, but, this mechanics make it highly unlikely anyone would attempt it.

Actually, to some extent, gunpowder and dynamite overlap. Dynamite was originally made by using an inert material to soak up and hold nitroglycerin. Modern smokeless gunpowder is usually a mix of 2 explosives- nitrocellulose and nitroglycerin, and a filler material. Incidentally, from about 1880 to 1900, the US used a type of cannon called a Dynamite Gun. It fired a shell filled with dynamite or similar explosive, using compressed air to drive the shell.

How far will a bullet travel when fired without a gun?
Not very far - several feet, perhaps, depending on a few things like caliber and what sets it off. The nature of Physics dictates that the lighter component will be launched. Generally the case (brass) is the part that is lighter. Smokeless powder burns, it does not explode. The burning of the powder in a restricted space (the chamber/barrel of a gun) enables pressures to rise and propel the bullet as significant velocity. Outside of these confines, the powder is not able to develop significant pressure. The inertia of the heavier component (often times the bullet) causes it to move very little. The lighter component will be launched but at a significantly reuced velocity from that which the gun barrel will propel the bullet. I have seen ammunition that "cooked off" in a fire. Generally the bullet is still in the case (brass) but the primer is the part that was propelled.
How much did dynamite cost when it was first made?
When dynamite was first invented in the 1860s by Alfred Nobel, its cost varied depending on the market and location. Initially, dynamite was more expensive than traditional explosives like black powder, but its efficiency and effectiveness soon led to its widespread adoption in mining, construction, and other industries.
Does 125 grain bullet travel faster than 115 grain?
Not necessarily. The weight of the bullet (125 grain vs 115 grain) is just one factor that determines the speed at which it travels. Other factors like powder charge, barrel length, and bullet design also play a role in determining bullet velocity.
What does a stick of mining dynamite look like?
A stick of mining dynamite typically looks like a cylindrical device with a fuse at one end. It is usually brown or reddish-brown in color and has a rough texture. Dynamite sticks are designed to be stable for transportation and handling but highly explosive when ignited.
If you drop a bullet and it hits the ground will it explode?
No, a dropped bullet will not explode upon hitting the ground. The impact may cause the bullet to deform or potentially discharge if it is struck in a specific way, but it will not explode like a firework.

Is a bb projectile a bullet?
not in the true sense because there is no gun powder involved but it acts like a bullet only with less power.
What is musket ammunition?
Musket ammunition typically refers to the projectiles and propellants used in muskets, which are early, smoothbore firearms. In the context of historical muskets, ammunition would consist of a lead ball or bullet, sometimes wrapped in paper or cloth, along with a powder charge of black powder. The powder charge would be ignited by a priming mechanism, such as a flintlock or matchlock, to propel the projectile out of the musket barrel. The development of musket ammunition played a crucial role in the evolution of firearms technology and warfare.
What is the difference in grain count for ammunition?
Grain is a measure of weight, like gram or ounces. It can refer to the weight of powder, or the weight of a bullet.
What do you think of Hodgdon Powder Is this a fast burning powder like you suggested?
I have loaded Hodfdon powder and I like it, but you are asking the wrong question. What caliber and bullet weight are you wanting to load? Hodgdon makes several powders and each is suitable for a limited number of calibers depending on the specifics.

Does grain equal powder or bullet?
Grain is a unit of weight, like pounds ounces or grams. There are 7000 grains to a US pound. Both bullets and powder charges are measured in grains. However, when referring to a particular version of a cartridge, grain will USUALLY refer to the weight of the bullet- as in a 125 gr. .357- they are speaking of a .357 Magnum cartridge loaded with a 125 grain bullet.
When was Feels Like Dynamite created?
Feels Like Dynamite was created on 2010-05-10.

Will a bullet fire if not in a gun?
no. nonononono what kind of a qestion is that Yes, the black powder and fulminated mercury found in bullets are very unstable compounds and can be made to explode by numerous means. For example: if you throw a bullet or bullets into a bon-fire they will explode, hitting a bullet with a hammer is never a good idea, sending an electric current through a bullet is like-wise a bad idea.
Can black powder guns fire real bullets?
By all means, yes they can. If you are referring to modern bullets or self contained cartridges the answer is no. Black powder guns fall into two major categories, muzzle loading and black powder cartridge, With muzzle loaders the powder is poured in the barrel topped with a patched lead ball or bullet, and ignited by an external cap or flint and steel. BP cartridges are much like modern bullets with the exception of the powder. Black powder burns at a slower rate thus the pressure within the case is less.. Modern "smokeless powder" burns rapidly when contained within the shell casing and produces higher pressures and bullet velocities.
