Sorry, this is against forum rules - we're not allowed solid propellant cannons (e.g. anything that uses a gun powder) - so regrettably, I'm going to have to talk to the mods.

I'd check the rules if I were you. Solid propellants are a no-no.

While I'm here, I would suggest it would be wise to read "The reasons behind the rules" on the spudwiki. It's something I wrote about a month back to help explain why we have these rules. Or at least, it's my interpretation of why these rules are a good idea - it might not be exactly why PCGUY had them in the first place, but no-one has disagreed with my interpretation yet.

You'll want to read the section on "Rule 3".
