It's the folds in the patch when started that make them come out Squarish when you cut off the excess. Try it for yourself.
Also in about to start a ball with an off centered patch I just dont start it I realign and start it.
Zonie said:Speaking of geometry, in a mathematical, theoretical world, the distance from the contact point around the ball to the muzzle is equal all the way around the bore so, if the patch was cut cleanly, it should end up a perfect circle.
.
If the patch is cut off flush with the muzzle while the material is in this folded condition it can come out in the somewhat rounded squareish shape most of them end up being

I have nowhere near the impressive skill set that CC has to be confident with precut patches. Kudos to CC.
