This paper cartridge former is specifically for 50 caliber muzzle loaders with 60/70 grain powder charges utilized round balls or minie balls. You must use coffee filters or other similarly thin paper such as cigarette paper. 

If your are using un-sized minie balls you will need a glue stick and a 2nd stronger glue such as duco cement. You can also use super glue, but it may affect accuracy. 

If you are using round balls or sized minie balls then you only need a glue stick.

---------------------------------------

The mandrel die is made of separate pieces to allow you to remove a stuck mandrel more easily. 

The template has 2 holes for forming the base of the paper cartridge. One is a blind hole, and the other is a clean hole. Some people prefer the clean hole to knock out stuck mandrels, I prefer the blind hole so I can work on a soft surface such as a desk pad.

--------------------------------------------

If you are having issues fitting the printed pieces together, there may be burrs at the base and corners of your print. Cut these off with a knife or deburring tool.
