Cap and Ball loads

[Eric Johanen]

In the above photo of the cartridges the .36 used a square cut bottom. The .44's use a round cut bottom. I really like the appearance of the round cut bottoms and while it takes a few seconds longer to cut them round I like the look and the less paper on the round cut version. I will be changing the lube on the cartridges after viewing the method the Mark details in his video as I can see where a thinner coat of lube may help with accuracy. Can't wait for the weather to improve for some range time test the paper cartridges.
