assembled 6" double petal shell
This is the completed shell minus the leader(fuse) and lift. The outer petal stars are dark comp to green, and the iner petal stars are blue. The burst charge is ricehulls coated 5/1 ratio with homemade ballmilled black powder. About a quarter teaspoon of flash is added to give it a little more bang and help excelerate the stars all the way out so they don't droop. Add quickmatch and 3.5 onces of 2fa black powder and it's ready to shoot. This has 1.5 inches of time fuse giving it between 4 and 5 seconds of lift time. This should put the burst around 700 feet
