BaddwufPenny Folders for shot?
Any one using penny folders or paper to wrap shot in? Looking for tighter paters or easier loading in a 20 ga canoe gun

Daryl S.I've used "Post-it Notes" for shot wrappers with some success.
The penny wrappers are a bit too heavy, aren't they? Slitting them different lengths can help and adjust the shot cloud.

BaddwufYes a friend tried it and it came out like a slug.

Idaho SharpshooterGo to your local newspaper and ask for a tag end roll. That's a small remnant of newsprint rolls that are too small to use for even a short run.
Or, just use yesterday's paper.
I use it in my Fusil (Center Mark) all the time. Killed seventeen Canadian Geese with nineteen shots this season.

Flinters of course, nipples belong on a woman's chest: NOT on a man's rifle.

You crack me up Rich.....flintlock rifles and a Mathews Monster bow.
You are diverse.

Idaho SharpshooterTed,
you ARE correct sir!
If it goes "band" or "twang" I probably have at least one. Longbows, recurves, and compounds.
Two flint rifles, an Early Lancaster and a Tulle.
Then we get into cartridge firearms...
