A wadcutter is simply a style or shape of a bullet that cuts a hole in a paper target cleanly so that the shot may be judged easily for score. A wadcutter bullet is basically just a barrel shaped bullet...conical. There is also a "semi-wadcutter" bullet that has a sharp shoulder beneath a tapered tip.
With the muzzle pointed up, a measured charge of black powder is poured down the barrel, and the rifle may be shaken or the butt thumped on the ground to settle the powder. A bullet (typically a round lead ball) is placed on a small greased cloth patch at the muzzle, and pushed into the barrel with a starter rod. Once inserted, the ramrod is used to push the bullet down the barrel, until it is resting on the powder charge. The rifle is them brought to a horizontal level, the cover of the priming pan (known as the frizzen) is opened, and a small amount of fine priming powder is placed in the pan. Once the frizzen is closed, and the hammer cocked, the rifle is ready to fire. The process may vary slightly if the shooter is using paper cartridges. These are tubes of thin paper that hold a bullet, and a measured charge of powder. Thee were bitten or torn to open the tube, powder poured into the barrel, and paper/ball rammed home with the ramrod.
well i know that it is definely 100% shore that it is the bullet
make it with paper silly people\

What's a paper unit?
Musket ammunition typically refers to the projectiles and propellants used in muskets, which are early, smoothbore firearms. In the context of historical muskets, ammunition would consist of a lead ball or bullet, sometimes wrapped in paper or cloth, along with a powder charge of black powder. The powder charge would be ignited by a priming mechanism, such as a flintlock or matchlock, to propel the projectile out of the musket barrel. The development of musket ammunition played a crucial role in the evolution of firearms technology and warfare.

Ensure the firearm is unloaded and clear, get a cleaning rod and a bore brush, and run it through the barrel.
well all materials are bullet proof,that is depending on the caliber bullet and how thick the material is,a .22 caliber can pierce a 2x4,and a .50 cal can pierce about 50 2x4's,even paper can stop a bullet,if ya take one sheet of paper its not going to do much,but get about 1000 sheets and nothing can get threw,not even armor piercing!
YTo stop the bullet from whacking him in his head!
so you can see whats underneath so you can trace it!
