I've seen pictures of the cartridges that you speak of, but have never tried them. I have an old magazine that shows the Erma carbine when it was first sent here for sale. They were using a .54 cal...

I have a .410 double barrel muzzleloading shotgun. Then fiber wads and thin cards look as if they are going to work for what I have in mind. I'll peel off about 1/8" of the wad, soak it in melted...
