I have been meaning to give paper patched boolit shooting a whirl for some time and finally ordered 50 pre patched 450gr 45-70 boolits from Bullshop. I correctly figured that he could put the diapers on those pretty boolits waaay better than me and my ten thumbs. They arrived yesterday and look fine, but now I gotta load em and figure those of you that have experience with these might have some wisdom to pass along.
I'm shooting black powder only, so have to figure on a lube cookie. Question is how thick to make the cookie? How bad a problem is lube migration past the bottom wad into the charge? Or is it a problem at all?
