A package of six combustible paper cartridges for .36 caliber percussion revolvers. These fully functional and accurate combustible paper cartridges are facsimiles of the paper cartridges and packets issued during the American Civil War. A package of this ammunition would be an excellent choice to be displayed with a .36 caliber percussion revolver in a fitted display box.

Six combustible cartridges per box
.375" lead ball
14 grains FFFg black powder
Labeling will be one of three original makers' labels
Proprietary rice paper treated with potassium nitrate solution
Seams sealed and ball seated with sodium silicate
Packets do not include percussion caps

Each cartridge is hand rolled. The tapered end drops into the cylinder easily, and will seat firmly, when fired cartridges combust completely leaving less than four percent ash residue. Follow all safe percussion revolver loading practices: Seat cartridge fully and firmly, always grease chamber after seating to avoid chain fire, NEVER apply percussion caps until all chambers are loaded, wait 1 minute and be sure embers are out in each chamber before reloading.

The dimensions of the item are 2-1/2" x 1-1/4" x 1/2"
