Welcomw
Well, there is a section on Smoothbores, and a lot of us make and use paper cartridges for hunting, or for reenactment blanks,
And there is a section on Handguns, and a lot of the guys make and use paper cartridges for those.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

Paper cartridges were used before metallic cartridges became the norm and were made of paper that contained the bullet, gunpowder, and sometimes even a primer or lubricant. They were commonly used in the 17th-19th centuries and were a popular choice.
There are still people who enjoy making their own paper cartridges using modern materials like hair curling paper, toilet paper, and glue stick. There are even kits available that provide everything you need to get started.

I've found a lot of shopping lists for making cartridges, where could I find one of the kits you mentioned?

Welcome. Also from Arkansas

It's great seeing all the Arkansans here! I know a lot of people who shoot modern and milsurp, but most of the guys I know only shoot blackpowder so they can extend the deer season.

Close enough to maybe 'Howdy' sometime. I'm in Mountain Home. BTW, there used to be a good ml club there. The range was behind the folk center and we used to do demos there.
