During the Revolutionary War, soldiers loaded their muskets using a process called "muzzle-loading." They would first pour gunpowder down the barrel, followed by a paper cartridge containing a lead ball. Next, they used a ramrod to push the ball and powder down to the breech, ensuring a tight fit. Finally, they would place a percussion cap or touch hole priming to ignite the powder when fired.
