Very cool stuff! It's interesting the one ad lists "Schuetzen Target Ranges." Very few people even know what that is anymore. There's a few clubs around Fredericksburg. They were more than shooting competitions, they were a major social event! Thanks for posting.

Great find on the images. Could you imagine going into Bass Pro, Cabelas or Academy and asking for a box of .303 .20 Paper Patched ammo. I bet the look on their face would be priceless.

Very cool guns, congrats on snagging that fine rifle Colt45. WestTN_TX to the forum, pull up a stump and hang out a while. Back in the day they did lots of things with one rifle by varying the ammo used like shown in the add. I have loaded and shot a few paperpatch loads for the 45-70. it is interesting and fun and not htat bad once you get it down.
lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true Mainstream news might be fun to watch
