I never messed with this. How does it work? Is there lube under the paper? Does the paper burn up on the way out?

the paper becomes confetti on the way out of the barrel. no lubes. degrades the paper.

comparable fouling to sabots. in fact, if you think about it is a sabot. just a little more green then poly. lol
