Anyone make Paper Cartridges?

Its alright and I have seen that site, however, most indications I have seen online is that originally single hexagonal rounds were shipped/sold and not actually wrapped up in a paper cartridge or at least other then that one site all I see is packaging for lose bullets from the time period.

Plus the rifles came originally with molds to cast your own ammunition. So I doubt there was much money to be made selling pre-packaged cartridges.

Figured its because they are all using the new fancy copper jacketed, plastic tip bullets and plastic sabots. With Black Powder Substitutes that come in preformed charges of 50gr I believe.

At least thats what most people I know are using a variation from. Some even have went as far to get the L-N-L's and pull the .45 caliber Hornady Bullets to use the brand they prefer instead! Shocked
