Combustible Paper Cartridges

[tdmoparguy]

When making Combustible Paper Cartridges what ratio of saltpeter to water do you use?

When the saltpeter doesn't dissolve anymore, then that's enough. BTW, I never throw out the unused water but store it in an old mayonnaise jar.

I don't use nitrated paper. I use tea bags. They burn completely and clean. Caps have no trouble blowing through them.

At Hawg's suggestion I made up some cartridges using tea bags. Much easier to work with than cig papers. I haven't shot any yet.
