    Go to the research articles I wrote years ago on "Making Authentic Cartridges" and "Making Authentic Cartridge Packs". They on the "research link" on the 33d Wisconsin Web Site. http://www.33dwis.com If that URL does not work, I have a link to there from my web site: http://www2.inxpress.net/jwedeward then go to Research Articles Link

          I'd be extremely concerned about someone firing a muzzleloader who can't even find cartridge rolling directions online. This is truly sad.

            I think the question was answered in the first few responses. The rest were useless.
