I have a question regarding paper cartridges in a smoothbore.
When inserting the cartridge, do you stuff it in ball first or paper first?
The reason why I asked is as follows. I acquired a Pedersoli Brown Bess about 3 months before being diagnosed with cancer. I only got to shoot it a few times before I was waylaid by the Chemo. The Chemo left me with neuropathy in my hands, and I had to give up on paper cartridges for a couple of years-- just couldn't feel my fingers well enough to roll and tie them. Now I'm back in business. I hunted with the Bess, but used the SkyChief Method; it was easier to pull off. Now that my neuropathy has improved, I want to try rolling cartridges again.
I just got done with my quarterly checkup and I'm now officially 2 years cancer-free. The Chemo also gave me a certain amount of memory loss. Some things just got burned out of me. One of them is that I cannot remember which way the cartridge goes in. I looked on Youtube, and I've seen it both ways.
How do y'all do it?
Many thanks in advance.
