PaperCartridges Shoots the Pritchett Bullet

The Pritchett bullet and it’s cartridge for the Pattern 1853 Enfield rifle-musket is being “re-discovered” by black powder shooters around the world. In this video, we discuss what the Pritchett bullet is, it’s history and development, and why the Pritchett is becoming increasingly popular. I also have a few things to say about the amazing life of R. T. Pritchett, the young gunsmith who developed this iconic bullet.

Please forgive any choppy editing or background noise… I am still deployed and conditions are not, shall we say, ideal for editing video!

For a much fuller and more detailed discussion of the rifle-musket, the importance of the dangerous space, and the paradigm shift in tactical thought that the rifle-musket started, the book “The Destroying Angel” may interest you: https://www.amazon.com/Destroying-Angel-Rifle-Musket-Modern-Infantry-ebook/dp/B07GRG7ZJY#
