That's not a good mix to use for making Gunpowder - the universally accepted proportions are 75% Potassium Nitrate, 15% Charcoal, and 10% Sulphur.

Also, the charcoal is important. You should use willow charcoal (available from art shops) for a really fast burning, potent charcoal.

Alos, I think there's different mixtures for every type of gunpowder you are trying to make whether that be a real bomb, bullet, firecracker, or whatever. But don't try this home although I have when I was like 9...hehe... Good thing I still have my arms...
