well after I get some success, I'll put a pictorial on how to make them. Then you can try it out.

My problem would be powering it, I dont have the resources to make rocket engines...so i'd probably launch them pnuematically...have to build my cannon first...

I guess you could do that too. If thats the case though, you might as well make some big torpedos. I just worry about the sudden acceleration produced setting those things off inside the cannon.

You could do some tests, as in, try to find the impact required to set the primers off. Then try to find the accleration of the rocket, I know not eactly easy, but it'll be safer in the long run ...

Well I found out it requires quite a blow to set those things off. I'm not sure if the rocket is strong enough for that though. I might have to screw the whole primer idea and put a torpedo (cracker ball) or similar device.
