    star shot

    I found two descriptions on the web, one a metal ring with 3 to 4 foot lengths of chain attached to it. Another was similar but used cylinders attached to an iron ring. Both described it as an anti rigging shot.

    One powder

    I use 3F for my .50; and I use an old 35 mm film canaster and a .490 ball and gently crush some of the 3F into a finer priming powder. That way I don't need a whole pound of 4F.

    smoothbore fowler

    right on fishindoc! I'm 5'4" too, and in the end I ordered a fowler with a 44" barrel.

    Paper cartridges as wadding

    Thanks for all the feedback! I have used the paper cartridges for wadding twice now, in a rifle. I also use a PRB over the paper wadding. The paper has stopped the patches from being blown. But in light of the comments on fires, I will order some wads soon.

    Paper cartridges as wadding

    I am using the paper cartridge for the powder and thought it would be easy to just stuff it down the barrel. I don't get to shoot often so my groups aren't consistant enough to see any effect the one time I did try it.

    Paper cartridges as wadding

    Has anyone ever tried using these as wadding between the prb and the powder? I figured if hornet nest would work so would the paper.
