"Downloaded ammunition"

[majex45]

Nobel No 3 was OK for light loads (it is close to Bullseye in burning speed) but it should not be used for higher pressures and there was a warning about its use in 9 mm, which is a fairly high pressure round.
The subject of detonation has been debated for years (I have seen references to it in 1950s American gun mags). The consensus is that if damage can be caused, then it is by lighter than normal loads of SLOW burning, rifle powders in larger cases.

Quite right.
