Well, if anyone was interested in my premade cartridges, I'll throw some pics up here for help's sake.
First, I select a sticky note, which happens to be 2x the size needed to make a cart. tube, after halving it, I attach a little bit of masking tape. paper tape is important, because it rips.
Roll around selected roller, (little hammer for me, perfect diameter) then fold in one end:
Then insert ball followed by wad. (not pictured)
Tamp wad to seal the tube around the ball:
Then pour in the carefully measured powder from a powder measure: (here it is, poured already)
Next, fold the empty portion in half, with a locking fold as shown:
Then add to your little tupperware of cartridges:
Then, to use, unfold, dump powder into cylinder, pinch out wad and ball and poke into cylinder, apply cap, fire away. (might want to use something like this: )
Hope you guys enjoy, and maybe you can use it. Its a heck of a lot easier than taking the whole box o stuff to the range. All I take is the tupperware and the pistol. (and eyes and ears and targets.)
