I cut fully 1/2" or more of waxpaper sheets (compressed roll) per pass using a .45/70 case with a sharpened mouth. I drilled a 1/4" hole through the primer pocket, then inserted a 2 1/2" x 1/4"x 20 TPI threaded bolt into the hole, then screwed on a nut, locking the bolt to the brass case.
Chucked in the drill press and running it against a piece of plastic cutting board HDPE) or UHMW, I cut hundreds of wads, ie" wax paper disks in just a few minutes.
Unscrewing the nut, allowed me to push out the cut disks of wax paper. Worked a charm and cost me 1 ctg. case, a nut and a bolt.
I've done this for both .45 and .50 cal. BP Ctgs. for using with lube balls beneath the loaded bullet.
1 between the powder and lube wad, 1 between the wax-paper disk and bullet's base, it no card wad. If a card wad is also used, the 2nd wax paper disk is not used.
Paul Mathews thought the bee brood foundation was an improvement over the wax paper. I do not know as all I every have used, is wax paper. My .50 Alaskan, loaded with 85gr. 2F and a 550gr. lubed RCBS bullet, 50/50 pure lead and WW, printed 1 1/2" groups for me, at 200yards - double apertures(just like my .30BR match rifle).
