Hi
I have two questions about how to load a flintlock muscket, first of all how did you actually load a flintlock musket, by all methods but initially the British military method?

The second question is I know the cartridge held held poder and a ball, and the powder was used first, where was the musket ball held when the cartridge was opened?
