- The Shell & Tube Sharps cartridge is as easy to use. - The "Tube" holds the powder charge, and the "Shell" holds the bullet. - The fit between the Tube and the Shell is such that the friction holds the cartridge together. |
|
|
- As the cartridge is inserted into the gun the Shell stops on the breech allowing the Tube to push the bullet into the rifling. |
|
|
- When the cartridge is removed the powder charge drops in behind the bullet. |

|
- Use a loading block to hold tube upright, and load powder into tube using a powder measuring device. |
|
|
- Insert bullet into shell deep enough so that the shell can be held upside down without the bullet falling out. |
|
|
- Insert bullet/shell on top of tube. - If bullet/shell does not slide onto tube smoothly, use corn starch, baby powder, or a light lubricant to help the shell slide easier. |
|
Note: If a Ringtail bullet is used, the tail of the bullet should not go inside the tube.
This may result in the tube binding in the gun during loading.
