Indeed. But you closed with saying you were going to take the cups out. I think the paper might help if you do. Depending on the paper you use, it could also reduce shot deformation along the bore's wall. Anyway, just a thought you might try. I'm always interested in BP loads. I've had trouble with plastic shot cups over fiber wads. For some reason they still melt onto the bore walls and make for tedious cleaning.
