Tons of info of course here, about paper Patching, how to, variations, kinds of Paper, ways of wrapping...
What I am not finding though, is any basic information about why one would Paper Patch in the first place.
Done right, does Paper Patching increase Velocity?
Does it increase Accuracy?
Does it save on Bore wear?
If one Lube the Paper Patch, does it do a better job of Lubricating the Bullet/Bore, than captive Lube in open Lube Grooves would have?
Does anyone Paper Patch for Hand Gun Cartridges? Or is there a Velocity threshold, past which, Paper Patching starts to be worthwhile, and below which, it is not worthwhile?
Thanks!
