Specify the gauge and wad or card type:
- "A" card: .125" thick, over powder, waterproof, to seal the powder
charge. 1000 per bag.
- "B" card: .025" thick over shot card, to hold it firmly in place.
1000 per bag.
- "C" card: .500" very thick fiber cushion wad. Lubricate before
use. 500 per bag.
Vegetable Fiber Wads: The vegetable fiber wad is traditional for use in the
black powder cartridge rifle, and it is biodegradable, unlike the LDPE wads which
will probably never break down. Vegetable fiber wads stay flexible, to seal the
bore of the barrel against gas blow-by around the bullet. The inside diameter of
your cartridge case should be larger than the groove diameter of your barrel, and
your vegetable fiber wad should be a snug fit in your case. Available in .062" (1/16")
thickness, in your choice of five popular calibers. Sold in bags of 1000.
Wad Sizing Charts: the wad manufacturer recommends using wads with the same
diameter as the bore for Rocky Mountain brass, paper, and plastic. Track of the Wolf produced Parker Bros. marked shotshells require largere wads, refer to the filter or chart for recommended size. MagTech brass
require larger wads, refer filter or chart for the recommended size.
