Adam, do you use the coin wrappers to carry just premeasured powder charges...or as a complete "cartridge" with a ball tied in similar to those carried in the Civil War?

I'm going on a dove shoot with my Flintlock over Labor Day and while I probably won't use but a few, I know from dove shoots years ago it was easy to go through a box of shells.

Have been thinking about coin wrappers to carry premeasured powder charges in some, maybe a couple ziploc bags with a dozen charges in each bag.....and premeasured shot charges in another set of coin wrappers...if some wrappers dropped on the ground, that cheap paper would dissolve in short order and not leave long term litter, etc.
