Anyone ever use paper shot cups? Read about 'em in a back issue of "Muzzle Blasts". I don't want to use plastic cups as its not really "in the spirit". Doin' OK without cups in my 10 ga. double, but if I could get 5 or 10 more yards...

Musketman-
Do you just cut the excess paper off (in other words measured shot filled to the brim). What kind of wads over powder and over shot?
You got a point there. I hadn't thought of the paper thickness. I believe, however, that the 5/8" would be perfect for my 16ga.(.665) pistol.A 5/8 dowel is a bit too big for a 20 guage. You will need to turn or file it down to about .580 or .590 to allow for the thickness of your paper. This will depend a bit on the actual bore dia you have and the thickness of the paper you use.
