From my youth days I hardly recall reсipe of the black powder: charcoal, sulfur and nitrate. I was never curious what exact nitrate needed. But nowadays I see it can be: ammonuim nitrate, potassium nitrate, sodium nitrate… So, which one?

Any of them will work, it’s more what you can get ahold of cheap. I prefer to avoid ammonium nitrate personally. Not a fan of the smell more than anything.
