A wadcutter is simply a style or shape of a bullet that cuts a hole in a paper target cleanly so that the shot may be judged easily for score.

How do you load a flintlock rifle?
With the muzzle pointed up, a measured charge of black powder is poured down the barrel, and the rifle may be shaken or the butt thumped on the ground to settle the powder. A bullet (typically a round lead ball) is placed on a small greased cloth patch at the muzzle, and pushed into the barrel with a starter rod. Once inserted, the ramrod is used to push the bullet down the barrel, until it is resting on the powder charge. The rifle is them brought to a horizontal level, the cover of the priming pan (known as the frizzen) is opened, and a small amount of fine priming powder is placed in the pan. Once the frizzen is closed, and the hammer cocked, the rifle is ready to fire. The process may vary slightly if the shooter is using paper cartridges. These are tubes of thin paper that hold a bullet, and a measured charge of powder. Thee were bitten or torn to open the tube, powder poured into the barrel, and paper/ball rammed home with the ramrod.

What is musket ammunition?
Muskets are muzzle loaded weapons. This means the gunpowder, wad and bullet are all loaded down the barrel and packed into the bottom of the barrel using a ramrod. Therefore, they don't use conventional brass cased ammunition like that used in modern firearms. The powder is black powder or a black powder substitute. The wad is thin leather or cloth and is wrapped around the bullet itself and forced down the barrel to seat atop the powder charge. The bullet is cast lead round balls or the Minie ball, also made of cast lead. Muskets are usually around .50 caliber, but that can vary. Sometimes the powder, wad and bullet were all wrapped in paper making a complete cartridge but the end had to be ripped off and the powder still had to be poured into the barrel first.Hope this helps!
