The railroad tie idea will make a great backstop. Let me say that first. Something I might add is to mound dirt behind the ties, so that in the event a bullet should pass through, it wil help stop them some.It will also help support the ties from leaning one way or another over time.. It is my opinion that the bullets should not first hit something hard (e.g. railroad ties). If the bullets hit a hard surface first, there's a good chance for ricochet. Bullets need to first hit something that is soft and penetrable.
If you are a cap and ball revolver shooter already, you will find that you have most of the equipment you need to make combustible paper cartridges. In addition to lead balls and black powder, you will need cigarette papers, scissors, white hobby glue, a loading block, a powder funnel and a cartridge former.lace the cartridges in a loading block for powder charging. My loading block is a simple piece of 1 1/2 inch by 2 1/2 inch spruce stud with fifteen 9/16 inch holes drilled about 3/4 inches deep. To charge the cartridges, I use a CVA powder flask funnel, which is perfect for the task.
