a case when the powder load was a bit lower than would be good and could cause hang fires. I have used a quarter sheet of TP rolled up into a ball and shoved down tight against the powder. This keeps the powder close to the primer and keeps the ignition perfect and never has it caused any problem with a muzzle brake. TP burns extremely fast and leaves no clogging of the ports. But this is totally different from the paper used in paper patching bullets. I have never used paper patched bullets so I have no info on that.
