I am doing experiments with caseless ammunition and have one question so far.

I am trying to form some old gunpowder I have laying around into a solid form. This stuff is 50 year old Turkish gun powder I removed from DUD 8mm Mauser rounds. If I mix it with alcohol and pour it into a mold, will it form a solid clump and still be able to burn?
I don't see how it is dangerous.... it is no different than burning a pile of gunpowder on the ground. If anything it will be safer since it will probably burn slower.

I am not adding a projectile at this stage of developement.
