paper cartridges

[gotgcoalman]

method, King size rolling cigarette rolling papers normally used by pot smokers lol.

place ball/shot at 1 end and use a piece of dowel slightly smaller than the bore of the gun to roll th paper into a tube,once u stick the rolling paper remove the dowel and twist the end with the shot in.
hey presto a tube to pour powder into.
Once a charge of powder is poured in twist that end aswell and your left with a self contained charge/shot cartridge.

In the field/range tear powder end and pour into muzzle then ram the rest down the bore.
Paper acts as a wad and i've had good balistic results out to 100 yards.
right side of pic is standard 12 gauge cartridge.

Interesting "twist" :rotf: on making those cartridges. How large a bore size can you make with one of those papers?

Those i made were for a .45 cal

The only restriction is the length of the tube
made for the charge.Then you could always
stick 2 papers together and increase the volume
of powder.
