ABSTRACT:
A muzzle loading device (10) for storing and dispensing projectiles (30), propellants (34) and priming caps (36) used in muzzle loading firearms (22) and for receiving ramrods (28) while packing a shot or while cleaning the barrel (64) of a muzzle loading firearm (22). A plurality of through holes (46) are dimensioned to closely receive projectiles (30). A propellant reservoir (16) is dimensioned to hold a measured amount of propellant and to be received by the muzzle (24) of a barrel (64) while dispensing propellant (34) and while inserting a ramrod (28) into the barrel (64) in order to protect the muzzle (24) from the ramrod (28). A plurality of recesses (18) are located on an extended portion (76) of the housing (12) and are dimensioned to closely receive priming caps (36), the extended portion (76) being dimensioned to be inserted into the breech (26) of the firearm (22) to deposit a priming cap (36) onto the nipple (78) of the firearm (22). A recess (21) is dimensioned to receive one end (68) of the ramrod (28) after the ramrod (28) is inserted into the barrel (64) so that the muzzle loading device (10) is used as a handle for the ramrod (28).
