Does this course give any accreditation towards a certified surface Blaster's ticket?

I looked into doing that for M.D. 21, was signed up for certification and all... then found that insurance was $15000 a year!
So I didn't bother attending the course.

Default blasting

used to have my own mags for dam blasting but low water and liability insurance doubling after 911 i gave it up, was fun work , get to see some awesome country and people. Was better when the beavers where worth the money to trap also.

Thundershot...Canadian made , available in centerfire and rimfire at most firearm retailers.
Two pounds of centerfire sends a 25 lb propane tank 100 ft in the air...will do wonders on a beaver dam I would think.

Isn’t beaver dam blasting a “regulated” activity?

You can never use too much powder.
