I suspect as long as you keep black powder as your powder BatFag-E's won't have issue. Use smokless.......your a terrorist making an explosive device vs an old bowling ball launcher wannabe.

Just how I have seen em act in the past........Stay Safe !

They're more concerned with making certain the thing remains a muzzleloader rather than concerns as to the nature of the propellant. There are also a few Destructive Device shooters working up propelling charges for recoilless rifles and the 37mm AT guns in particular, for which black powder doesn't work all that great.

The thing BATF gets fussiest about regarding muzzleloaders is exploding or *spotter charge* shells, which they consider to be seperate and individual *explosive devices* themselves, with a $200 per shot federal tax...unless you're a licensed DD manufacturer involved in *testing.* Avoid that end of things [particularly with muzzleloading mortars and stick top bowling balls, and things will go a lot smoother.

Those of us reworking tank main guns have a bit more paperwork with which to deal. And my pal with the 90mm AA gun [he couldn't find a working 88mm Flak 18, but the 90 comes pretty close] is developing writer's cramp.
