[QUOTE="Smo, post: 5144070, member: 12078"] No Sir I haven’t…. But I’ve shot brown paper grocery bags as a rolled cartridge…. [IMG]https://i.ibb.co/JmKgNFC/DC91161-E-74-DA-44-A5-8-A92-C41-D2-D80-A45-C.jpg[/IMG] They patterned ok at 20 yards..But sometimes would not separate from the paper and hit as one big hole in the target..”slug “ but not necessarily where I was aiming. I have however shot roundball with a paper patch… Spence over on the MLF mentioned using hand rubbed brown paper. Thin, brown paper bags like the old type Dollar Store bags were… Cut into 1”x2” strips after they’re rubbed soft.. I fold the patch in half and center the ball sprue up… A .626 ball will thumb start in my .653 bore. And it shot just as well as a cloth patched ball.. I have used wasp nest as a wad over the powder in the past too…of which I have no shortage. This one showed up under the seat in my shooting house a couple years back.. [ATTACH type="full" alt="2F46BA53-F73D-4399-B9B6-110C9B48FC1F.jpeg"]82626[/ATTACH] I did collect it…. [/QUOTE]
