Smokeless or Nitro Powder
This is the powder that nearly all sportsmen prefer. There are two kinds of smokeless powder made, and these are known as (1) bulk-for-bulk and (-2) dense powder.
Bulk-for-bulk, or simply bulk for short, means a powder whose charge, or explosive power corresponds very nearly when an equal bulk is used as black powder although the smokeless powder weighs much less, while dense powder is one which equals the strength of a black powder charge but whose bulk is much less.
The following trade names are given to bulk powders for use in shotgun shells, and when you buy shells loaded with them you will know to a certainty that they can be depended on; these powders are (a)Du Pont; (6) Schultze; (c) E. C. Hazard and (d) Empire. Dense powders of reliable make are the Infallible and Ballistite.
