I found this guy's web site:

http://cartridgetubes.com/

But he is joining the army and going out of business.

I was wondering if anyone sells the paper components for making your own cartridges?

It would be cool to have them die-cut so the paper was all ready-to-go for "rolling your own". Does anyone sell such?

All the vendors have the plastic tubes. Recommend against paper if you head the N-SSA way.

What weapon do you want to make cartridges for? If a Rifled Musket get the plastic tubes but it its for something like a sharps thats a different story.

I want to make authentic cartridges for the P1853 Enfield.

I have found numerous resources on the net already.
