DON"T DO THAT! To late already did, planning to try it again

You are shooting blackpowder right? Yup 72 grs Goex cartridge And sizing to what diameter? .450 patched

For which caliber? 45-70

Wiping or blowing between shots? Nope

I bet your barrel is pretty well leaded now. Nope

Did you pick up any patch fragments? Nope didn't pick any up twas just chunks of confetti blowing in the wind didn't feel like chasing them down What did they look like?

What is your intended goal? Mostly just to see what happened, if there was any chance of accuracy, and would there be any possibility of using this for an offhand load at a gong match without having to wipe between shots, Maybe something that would extend out to a hunting load. Sort of an adaptation of Remingtons instructions to use Sperm oil on the patch circa 1875
