    Sort of off topic, but I just finished reading "40 years with the 45-70" by Paul Matthews. His description of success with paper patching made me want to try it. Here is my dumb question, When you put a paper patch on a bullet, do you have to do anything (glue?) to make sure it stays on the bullet? Like I said, off topic, but you guys seemed to finish with your business, hope you don't mind.

    NO GLUE! The paper must come off the bullet at the muzzle, or you wont have ANY accuracy.
