Any one load paper patched bullets?

[Eric F]

I am at a loss on how to load them in metalic cartridges, can any one help?

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

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.
