(Best Horseshack impression) Oooh, oooh, oooh, Mister Kotter, I have a question to ax you.

OK, enough horseplay, I have a question about a Sharps .54 Caliber Rifle. Here is what I know. It says Sharps on the side and says .54 Caliber Rifle and has a double trigger. Here is what I think I know. You load it with paper cartridges through a breech that drops down via lever action.

Is there a kit for these to roll your cartridges or do I grab some phone books and start cutting to shape and where do I get rounds for it? Looks like it should be conical bullets but could be ball. The action is all smooth and the triggers seem to be smooth.

I did find this online: http://www.possibleshop.com/did-you-know/d-y-k-shooting-1859-sharps.html
