Hello all. Was thinking about this subject and thought I would post a question, and perhaps start a discussion. During the F/I war and Revolutionary war, were rifleman using cartridge boxes, and perhaps prepared cartridges at times? Conventional thinking is that they would use a horn and loose balls/patches. However, the British Baker rifle had variants of paper cartridges with patched balls. Also, just saw a drawing showing a rifleman using a Ferguson rifle having a cartridge box.
