Nope, it will not work. Been there and done that. I have a fun thing to do with the cracker kit , a model rocket engine, and a empty 12 Gage shotgun shell. |

Tannerite is a hell of a lot of fun, as long as you don't forget how dangerous it is. A gallon bottle filled with tannerite and set off in the fork of a 1-foot diameter oak tree will split it. Two bottles worth will destroy a 2 inch steel pipe.
Also, if you have a cut on your hand and it gets in, it will burn like nothing you have ever felt before. Have fun. |

I'm in the process of setting up a 1lb container in a rabbit decoy. Have one buddy in a tree with a video camera and another with a predator call. I plan on shooting the decoy when the coyote gets close enough. This should make an interesting movie.

On the comments about what projetiles you can use---I have heard the .223 is marginal (alot of dud reports) anyway. I haven't tried setting Tannerite off with my .223. I use a .22-250 or .257 Weatherby, and you can use any kind of bullet you want.
Tannerite= neet shit |

5.45x39.5mm is the least powerful caliber (in terms of ft.lbs) that I have had 100% success with.
I have noticed that even with more powerful cals, if you don't get a solid (near COM) hit, it will not detonate. I have had 5.56x45mm rounds hit the edge of the bottle and just spill some out. I wonder what the minimum safe distance for glass would be with a case or so of Tannerite? |

I have a 11 meg video of probably 20 to 30 tannerite bottles. Not sure if this clip is of the 30 we did but I know it is at least 20. Anyone have a place I can host it?

The mix we use at the shoot works with anything supersonic. A 22lr will work if it's supersonic. |

While somthing like a dry Ice bomb is not and dry Ice isn't even explosive! |

because tannerite, produced by a licensed professional explosives company, is considered to be for sporting purposes. ie, it is a reactive target used to hone the precision shooting skills, whereas a dry ice "bomb", as you correctly put it, does not fit that profile.
and further, a "bomb" by it's very nature is used most often for illegal and destructive acts. i do realize that if you're just horsin' around, that no one's gonna get hurt, but too many mailboxes, etc., have been blown up with this stuff, because mostly unthinking kids use it , and that's just how it is catagorized. can you name even a single legitamate use for a dry ice bomb? "it gives me wood to hear it explode" doesn't count as an answer.  edit to mention that tannerite is a fine product from your native state. |

After having done a number of really stupid things with it, I'd strongly advise NOT putting anything metal anywhere near the charge. Propane tanks, computer cabinets, anything that can produce shrapnel is very, very dangerous. This stuff is very fun, but without common sense can quickly become deadly.
a-fucking-men!!!! this needs drilled into everyone's head. do NOT be stupid! do not enclose tannerite within steel as this falls under FEDERAL laws regarding bomb making. do NOT become an acidental terrorisist. do NOT become an emergency room statistic! at bulletfest III, a one-gallon plastic container was detonated and sent rocks flying for 150 yards. ask sajer what a flying fire extinguisher does to the roof of a sport utility vehicle. do NOT BE stupid! 2200 fps is the minimum velocity required for detonation, but reliable ignition occurs aboves 2500 fps. i recently posted the formula for making your own tannerite over on the ak forum...again, do NOT be stupid. this shit is not something you want to make a mistake with. |

Enclosing it in steel makes it a non-tax-paid DD, at best. As CampyBob says, you could become a terrorist. At worst, you could kill some innocent person who was hundreds of yards away. |

Tannerite is a truly binary composition, and it can only be detonated by a high-velocity impact after combining the two components. Though legal, there are strict federal laws regarding them. A dry ice "bomb" is a uncontrolled composition constructed to explode - you can make gasoline "bombs" as well, and they're just as illegal. This is the kind of shit that's caused black powder and hobbyist pyrotechnics to be on the road for complete federal control. Some stupid fucking asshole starts blowing shit up and the soccer-cows at home start mooing about how "dangerous" it is and shouldn't it be illegal and some legislator starts pounding the podium about domestic terrorism and yada yada yada.  |

Finally got a host for the video... here is a ?? maybe 10 bottle charge. Warning - 12 meg file. The white smoke is flour taped to the outside of the charge. Hmm, that looks small so I'm pretty sure that isn't the large 30 one I have a video of somewhere. I'll try to find it. The other small explosion is probably a 1 bottle charge.
Blam Found the 30 bottle charge. Listen after and you can hear the rocks/debris hitting the metal roof. 16 megs for this vid. Big Blam |
