Try to find another person nearby who is interested in the sport and gift it to them.

By all means give it to someone or a club. If you can't find anyone spread it in your flower beds. It's a great fertilizer and the first rain will take care of it if the dew doesn't.

give it to me of course!

black powder sells for $25.00 lb. 'round here . Rather expensive fertilizer. Be generous to someone ,just give it to some black powder shooting person who could really use it. oldwood

Find a young youngster whipper snapper.

"Fire the anvil" like they used to do on the 4th of July...
Seriously, though, I like the suggestion of finding someone that can use it for what it was intended for.

Like other said, give it away to another shooter or sell it at a fair price below market, Post here where your at and wait for the PMs to come in from here contacting you about it ! Your profile doesnt show where your at.

We have members in every state that would appreciate it and give it a good home.
I'm a long way outa Rye, Texas, so that counts me out.

Any muzzleloader shooter will greatly appreciate a gift of 5 lbs of black powder; I know I would.

I also like the idea of giving it to another black powder shooter but if that isn't possible, sprinkle the powder around on the ground and then throughly soak the area with water.
The water will dissolve part of the powder leaving charcoal and sulfur behind. Neither of these things will explode and all three of the ingredients in the powder is good for the grass.

Give it away or pour on the garden and till. Your choice, it's your powder. No judjment from me.

You should hang on to it and visit your nearest black powder psychiatrist!

Do you have guns to go along with your powder?
