Patent Images
1. A projectile carrier for use with a muzzle loading firearm which includes a barrel having a bore, said projectile carrier comprising:
- (a) a circular bottom wall,(b) a cylindrical side wall which extends upwardly from said bottom wall, said side wall having a top opening for receiving a projectile, and(c) an annual outer flange which extends beyond said outer cylindrical surface for scraping and cleaning the bore of the barrel during loading and discharge of the firearm.

Abstract
A projectile carrier for use for the muzzle loading firearm. The carrier is formed of two separate and identical halves which abut along a common vertical plane. The two halves of the carrier when combined form a circular bottom wall and a cylindrical side wall which extends upwardly from the bottom wall. The side wall has a top opening for receiving a projectile.

6. A projectile carrier for use with a muzzle loading firearm comprising:
-
(a) a first half element which has a first semi-circular horizontal base and a first semi-cylindrical side wall which extends upwardly from said base, said base having a vertical edge surface, said side wall having a pair of spaced vertical edge surfaces which lie in the same vertical plane as the vertical edge surface, of said base, (b) a second half element which has a second semi-circular base and a second cylindrical side wall which extends upwardly from said second base, said second base having a second vertical edge surface, said second side wall having a pair of spaced vertical edges surfaces which lie in the same vertical plane as the vertical edge surface of said second base, the vertical edges surfaces of said first half element abutting the vertical edge surfaces of said second half element to form a cylindrical projectile holding cap having a circular bottom wall which has a bottom surface, a cylindrical side wall and a circular top opening, (c) a disc of lubricant adsorbing material, and (d) connecting means for removably mounting said disc against the bottom surface of said bottom wall. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9)
