    New Federal paper wad

    Has anyone got a chance to buy and shoot the new Federal loads with paper shot cup?
    Be nice if one could buy just the cup and wad for black powder reloading.

    I have been looking into this for the same reason. I can't get an answer from Federal about their releasing the components to reloaders. I seems that those of use who roll our own are not held in high regard by the corporate folks.

    Have you found that they offer some advantage?

    No, just like to try different things out of curiosity.

    I do too. Those rounds are cheap enough to pull them down for the wads.

    If they work, might be a little easier on the environment.

    Easier than a nitro card and fiber or felt wads? I really doubt it.
