Felt wads?
I'd like to try some felt wads. There seems to be quite a few types of felt material out there. Are you guys are using natural fibers like cotton felt for instance?

Is this something that I can run out to a fabric store and pick up?

Thanks,

Chris.

You might find them there, but I got some from the Sagebrush folks. Seams like they had different styles to choose from. I never got around to tryin' them in any loads though Angry.

The last felt I got was from this place. They have a nice assortment.
I stopped at a hat makers shop and asked if he had any scrap I could have and he brought out a whole arms length of round brim trimmings of 20X Rabbit fur felt. I like it better than Wool felt. It cuts very good in the Cornell press wad punch.
Stay away from the Acrylic felt. It don't like heat.

These are the ones I've been using. A bit spendy, but that dry lube impregnated into the material sure works good, and I do like the accuracy I'm getting with them in the stack
