Fire in the reloading room.

The two were refilling ammo in a detached garage in Venice when it became engulfed in flames followed by an explosion.

100 lbs of black powder seems like a lot but I’m not a black powder guy. I could understand that quantity for modern smokeless powders.

100 lbs aint much if your shooting a big cannon alot.
But my question is does the ones making that comment know the difference between black powder and smokeless powder.

Not if they were "refilling ammo."

What a shame.

This made me laugh. I'm sorry.

If they had 100 pounds of black powder they're gonna be in trouble.
You can only have 5 pounds in a residence. 100 pounds has to be in a magazine away from inhabited structures. BP is an explosive.
Smokeless is a propellant and you can have more of that. Fire Marshal will get them.

Sorry the first part i was joking, but like i said does the one making that comment on how much powder was there know the difference between what is black powder and smokeless powder they could have been using smokeless powder to refill the ammo. But then i know just as much about what really went on as the next person since i wasnt there to see the evidence.

That was the intention.

Sounds like they were new to reloading if they only had 10,000 loaded.
