Today I get my order from the US (Log Cabin Shop). Inside was together with other parts a bullet board. Could you please explain the right use, especially how to carry and right way of loading.
 
Place the board on a flat surface get your regular patch material and balls. Place patch material(lubed) over hole in board place ball on material and press into hole just like you are starting a ball into you rifles muzzle. If you like you can let the patch and ball extend a little past the bottom of the board, this will allow you to get it centered over the bore on your rifle faster and easier. Make a short starter about 1" long to start the ball from the board to your barrel then load as normal.
How to carry this, if it has a hole for a thong put one on it and carry around your neck. If not in a pocket or pouch just so it is handy and easy to get to. I use a little extra lube when loading a board because it is open to the air and may not be used for a little time don't want it to dry out.
They are great items to have and really handy once you get used to using them.
