Check out the 2nd and 3rd of 4 brief articles describing it that are all located on the technical information page at BPCR.net:

The BPCR forum and Technical Information Page can be accessed through links on their home page:

I obtained these leads and more from Jim Watson's post #2 linked next:

Also try the Shilo rifle board as Jim Watson suggested in his post after you read the articles above to obtain a basic understanding so that you can formulate specific questions.
From reading, I surmise that the case mouth must be sized & belled large enough to be able to insert the precisely sized and paper wrapped bullets. There's different types of patching paper, and how many wraps of paper and the [wet] method of applying it, and whether to lube it or not are other variables.

Good luck and let us know how it works out for you. :)

Mine are loaded with very little tension. You can pull the bullet out of the cartridge if that is what you are asking.
