This video explores the unusual use of spherical gunpowder in surplus Greek HXP .30 caliber ammunition, typically intended for the M1 Garand. The instructor explains the properties of spherical, stick, and flake powders, highlighting why spherical powder is often chosen for high-volume, cost-effective manufacturing due to its consistent metering and rapid burn rate, despite potential accuracy limitations compared to stick or flake powders. The discussion also touches on the safety implications of powder bridging in reloading dies, particularly with flake powders.
