Wow, this whole thing is a total mess. I would like to follow the rules
but it ain't easy--for example, if there's an exception for HPR and/or
Estes igniters in the ATF explosives list, I don't see it.
The only hint at an exception is a report from a meeting between the NAR
and ATF back in the 90's.

That indicated that the ATF wouldn't regulate igniters with less than a
few milligrams of pyrogen.
Something that was never put in writing.
But Estes recently dropped the energetic materials from their igniters
so for them it no longer matters.
