...to make historically correct paper cartridges for a rifled musket? I'm not talking blanks that look like live rounds, or the British "Pritchard"-type cartridge that uses a paper-patched, smooth-sided bullet, but an American Minie-ball type cartridge? all I have been able to find references to is that, like the British cartridges, they used 3 different pieces of paper, but the ball was loaded point outwards in the U.S. cartridges instead of point inwards like the Enfield cartridges. Anybody got an ordnance manual, or something???
