Interesting times ahead Bronko. I love playing around with stuff like that. I'll be looking forward to your reports. You might also consider dumping some corn meal or grits between the powder and patched ball. Also, with the cotton balls, you might try squirting some with Liquid Wrench and squeezing them in a paper towel to take up any excess oil.
Did you see my Hefty Hawken report on Modern Muzzleloader?
