That might shake a few pine cones out of the trees , I don't think squirrel hamburger mixed with fur would taste very good .

Here in Nebraska you can sell and possess Tannerite and it's copycats, but as soon as you mix it, it becomes illegal. At that point it is classed as an explosive.
That was interesting. Not as fun as tracer rounds, but I can't get those anymore.
I am really surprised that the ATF has not overstepped and made these illegal. "Exploding Rounds".
I just looked up in the internet and there are hundreds of DYI "Exploding Rounds"
Why can't you get Tracer Rounds? They are for sale and made by Federal America Eagle.
I still have a few Tracers from Viet Nam, but bought a few boxes made by Federal Eagle several years ago.
The original Tracer would light up right out of the barrel then were designed to light up 50-100yds by how many RPMs so the enemy could not detect where they were fired from and not damage to the barrel.

I wonder if you could use Tannerite to make your own?
You have to mix two parts together with Tannerite right before ready to explode. I think the if you are mixing the chemicals together and putting into Pellets could be a problem. There are many DYI videos and also you could buy the chemicals to make your own Tannerite off of Amazon or Ebay and other websites.
If you had the right chemicals you could hollow out a bullet and make an "Exploding Round" . I AM SURE THAT THE ATF WOULD HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THAT.
If anyone is going to try something like this - think about safety and blowing up your firearm and loosing some body parts and also going to jail.

Easier to buy.
Honestly, I did not know they were available. Like C4 and artillery simulators sometimes you found they had accidently fallen into your boot when at the range and followed you home. They might be fun for prairie dogs if it's not too dry. Sure don't need to start any fires.
