I recall some time ago that Albert9x19 had released some documentation detailing the process and chemistry behind synthesizing double-base smokeless powder at home. I can't seem to find the recipes anywhere though. Anyone know where they might be? I didn't see it on the index.

Nitrocellulose is extremely flammable, but so is commercial smokeless. Nitroglycerin is so sensitive it will go boom boom if you sneeze too hard.
