I've recently acquired a Garrett .56 cal falling block Sharps in quite nice condition. I've ordered a Rapine .557 Sharps Spitzer mould and a paper cartridge kit from Dixie Gun Works, and would love to hear from someone who has experience with these paper cartridges.
Do you cast pure lead bullets a la muzzleloader or use an alloy?
Also, has anyone here made their own nitrated paper? The pre-made and pre-cut stuff is kinda pricey.
