Yes, it is good fun. Most gunner's in my area have not seen what a blackpowder shotshell can do and usually ask if I "blew my self up?" After I tell them I am using blackpowder they are really interested and some express a desire to "give it a go'. More than happy to give them a pair or two. Watching the line of gun's in the movie discharge all those blackpowder loads on the drives really is great!
