So does anyone know a cheap(er) option for tannerite targets?  All the ones I can find are like 9.00 each.  Pretty fun but quick fun.  Might as well tape my wallet to one of the bottles and shoot it!

I might be slow but-what are you trying to say.  If I have a federal liscense, then it becomes cheaper?

You can make your own tannerite for way cheap.  Just do some google searching for homemade tannerite ingredients.  There are 2 somewhat available ingredients in it.

Buy the 1/2 lb. targets - still loud as hell but cheaper. Also buy in quantity for cheaper pricing.

I would suggest not mixing any homebrews - 1) to avoid any kind of oops. An ND of gun may be bad, an ND of explosives WILL be bad and 2) You never want the E in BATFE crawling up your ass.

A Federal 1.3g explosives license allows you to purchase "Class B" fireworks. Salutes will make anything else seem like a SMALL firecracker!

I make my own from ammonium nitrate and finely powdered aluminum.

I mix it at 1 cup ammonium nitrate to 1 tablespoon aluminum powder.

Check the EE, a fellow sells the formula CD along with a copy of the BATF paperwork regarding legality.

The formula is available by looking at the patent filed for Tannerite.

One cup AN to one tablespoon AL powder works.

ETA: The Tannerite formula is described by weight, but I used a scale and the above volume ratio is very close. Close enough.

And put it in a sandwich bag or what?  How mixed does it have to be?

I use plastic soda bottles.

Mix it well. I use a small tupperware tub where I thoroughly mix it.
