Frequently Asked Questions
What caliber and velocity are required to detonate a Tannerite target?
Tannerite binary targets require a centerfire rifle round traveling at a minimum velocity of approximately 2,000 feet per second to detonate. Common calibers such as .223 Remington, .308 Winchester, and most standard rifle cartridges work reliably. Handgun rounds, rimfire ammunition, and shotgun slugs typically do not generate enough velocity or energy to set off a properly mixed Tannerite target.
Is Tannerite safe to mix, store, and transport?
Yes — Tannerite's two-component formula is specifically engineered so that neither component is explosive or flammable on its own. The oxidizer and the fuel catalyst are inert when stored and transported separately. Once mixed, the target should be used promptly and never stored, transported in a vehicle, or left unattended. Always follow all manufacturer safety guidelines and local regulations when using binary exploding targets.
How far away should I be when shooting a Tannerite half-pound target?
Tannerite recommends a minimum safe shooting distance of 100 yards for half-pound targets. Larger targets require greater standoff distances. Always ensure bystanders and spectators are positioned well behind the shooter, and never place targets near dry vegetation, flammable materials, or structures. The water vapor reaction itself is non-incendiary, but responsible placement and adequate distance are essential for a safe shooting experience.
