Newspaper wads.

[Trigger]

Was thinking trying newspaper in the shotgun..

There's options..

Phone book.. newspaper. Printer paper. Paper shopping bags.

I'm just curious to try that. Seen a few videos. Posts. Topics. Etc.

I'm not sure how much. Fold it up like? Huh.. . I was thinking half the size of a dollar .. fold it up stuff it down?

Is cotton paper an option or the same stuff more money.

Good use for liberal rags like New York Slimes or Washington Compost!

I was thinking

Elmer's And water... a phone book.. then punch wads.

But then at that point.. it's nothing going on there.

In a shotgun I have used Paper towels torn and packed in tightly and it worked well.

I wouldn't mind using baseball cards either..

What would be the system. Rip it up stuff it down.

I've used newsprint. Works just fine. Doesn't start any fires, either. Just rip and crumple. No need to punch. Easily spit-lubed if that's your thing.

I think shopping bag paper, though, is too thick and heavy for decent wadding.

OK I think I got a system to try?

That's going to work i think. I formed it with the ram rod head and barrel muzzle.

In a 20 bore I use brown or packing paper, 2x1” folded and run down
This was an old style. I learned it from Dualist 54, and it’s the best I’ve found

This is what I’ve done too. Works good.
