ABSTRACT:
The invention is that of a cartridge-like container for containing a pre-measured powder charge, a projectile and a percussion cap ready for quick use in reloading a muzzle-loading firearm. The device comprises a tube open at both ends. The projectile is inserted in one end, the powder from the other end and a cap to contain the powder. A socket is provided on the cap for holding a fresh percussion cap. To use, the cap is removed, the powder poured into the barrel of the gun, the projectile is forced into the barrel by placing the container on the muzzle and pushing the projectile out of the container and into the barrel with a ramrod which is passed through the body of the container. The container is re-usable.
