Making Paper Cartridges

[Loyalist Dave]

Had revolvers on the brain and there isn’t much parking space there.....sorry

Don't be "sorry", as I learned something valuable for use later with my "Confederate Navy" .44's

I bought my last paper at AC Moore. It's Strathmore drawing paper. It contains 40 sheets of 9 x 12 paper. It is pretty rugged and takes a lot of abuse.

I use cooking parchment, the parchment doesn’t stick to the inside of the barrel. Waxed paper (like sandwhich paper) works very well too, twists nicely at the end.

Man I gotta try these. I roll revolver cartridges all the time but it took awhile to get the hang of the how to.

Guess my 62 could be of benefit from having a handy reload or three along. Betcha a feller could figure out doing rolled cartridges for shot as well which would be crazy fun.

There is NEVER an end to learning is there? Tis the why of my love affair with muzzle loaders. So many trails to delve into and so little time to do so.
