I've got a few tins of Ballistite grenade blanks and Ballistite is also widely used as a propellant in mortars, Bofors rounds, and base ejection 25pdr shells and god knows what else. But I also have several tins of WALSRODE rifle grenade blanks and have never heard or seen reference to this propellant. I originally thought it might be the place of manufacture, but it definately refers to the type of propellant. Has anyone else come across this before?
