Just out of ciriosity, do you use it in proximate fireworks pots for
concussions?

No... Heh! That stuff is too touchy for technicians to be handling it in
the field.

It's used for TINY indoor crossettes. It has worked on crossettes as
small as 6mm o.d..

It is nasty stuff, and I make my peace with the world before I mix it. I
don't _like_ doing it, but the only other alternatives are primary
explosives like azides (and those aren't safe enough to handle or legal
for use in close-prox goods) or rolled shots. Rolled shots are too labor
intensive for our market.
