If you are a handloader you know powder is hard to come by these days.
What if powder supplies completely dry up?
Well YouTuber Ammo Channel decided to test an alternative that is easy to find.
Match heads from an ordinary match book for use as gunpowder? How bad does it have to get?
Reloading components are very scarce these days in many areas. Supplies run out quick when found and prices continue to climb with no sign of slowing down. In a bad situation, you might have to find alternative components to load your own ammo.
Loading cartridges with match heads is not a new thing. YouTuber Ammo Channel takes a scientific look to see just how practical these expedient powders can be in both penetration and velocity against a ballistics gel block.
