Here's a little article I wrote about loading paper patch bullets:

It's mainly about how I mass produce the patches but also touches on various other aspects.

Great article!!

As I shoot both black (Swiss) and smokeless (IMR 4064 or Blackhorn 209) in my 11mm Mauser, I've shied away from lube with a petroleum base (vaseline) and use Safflower oil instead. With smokeless, the old NRA formula still works great 50% Alox/50% Beeswax.

It's nice to have contact with a well experience handloader!!
