I actually have always gone with the proper ballistite cartridge. If you check at the gunshows with the cartridge collectors, especially the shotgun shell collectors, they occasionally have them.

Rob,

Thanks for the info.

At this mornings gun show I grabbed a box of ballistite .303, and fondled a MkI Enfield grenade launcher rifle. [ As a sidenote - is $250 CDN about right for these guns? ]

I have never seen the 28 ga. blanks - but I have never looked either. Thanks for the warning about taking the pellets out of the loaded ammo - I bet that you would only do that ONCE!

Does your little mortar 'drop fire' or does your firing mechanism still function? Mine is more than a litle rusty - but I expect that it is simple inside.

Thanks,


Stewart
