I’ve never even shot one. But my dad has an old CVA wolf. Is there anything that should prohibit me from shooting paper cartridges through it? Call it a wild hair I suppose. I think it would be cool to get into it. I only bow hunt deer. Might be fun to change it up some.

Reliable Ignition will prevent you from shooting paper cartridges.

I've done it in my cap and ball revolver and it works fine. Tear off the tag end, pour the powder, place ball, and seat. In the field with a rifle, it's just as easy to buy the little plastic tubes that hold your powder and shot charge, and keep it dry.

So with inline muzzleloaders, you can for sure shoot the same "loads" for lack of a better term, as non-inline muzzleloaders, but you can't use paper to wrap it all up?

I think you are trying to use the paper and all as an all in one, place in the barrel and ram home and shoot? That's not how it's used, or at least how I have seen it. The paper is just to hold your powder charge, and bullet, together, for convenience, not function. It allowed a predetermined powder charge to be placed in the firearm and a bullet seated quicker than measuring out a load, grabbing a projectile, etc. Bite the end off, pour the powder in the barrel, tear excess paper from bullet, ram home, cap and shoot. If you want to do it from a historical standpoint, it's fine. But from a modern muzzleloading perspective it's just as easy to buy the speedloaders that hold your powder charge and projectile together, while being pretty much waterproof.
