Wads

[Dave Roelle]

Thanks Kurt------------makes sense, perhaps other materials can act the same in different degree's.

Cork does have the springy compressability for sure as well as a "slipperyness" against metal surfaces.

When we loaded mill-spec buckshot for the armed forces we used "homosoap" board punched into wads and dipped in parrifin -----------it acted much the same way, as well as providing some waterproofing to the powder charge in the 9 ball 12 gage loads
