Default RE: PRE CUT PATCHES OR NOT

I used to use precut but have gone to buying pillow ticking at WalMart, making my own lube and cutting at the muzzle or loading block...

For some reason, my .54 started burning the store bought patches...I belong to a Traditional Muzzleloading forum and there is talk about prelubed patches breaking down...I can't prove this
but, when I went to buying a yard of ticking and cutting at the muzzle my patches stopped burning...

You can also cut your own patches, either round or square and not cut at the muzzle if that's easier for you...
