Review on 48" X 200 Ft Natural Kraft Wrapping Paper By Pacon 5850 by Vanessa Carstens

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It's Paper, It's Brown, and It's Heavy. The 'Krafty " part I'm not so sure about.

I bought this paper to use for patterning shotgun loads to determine which shells perform best with my gun.For this very particular intended purpose, the paper had to be: 1. Stiff enough that it won't sag when cut to 4ft x 4ft sheets, 2. Dark enough that a paper plate taped in the center stands out well at 50 yards, 3. Tough enough to withstand moderate breezes down-range, And 4. Heavy enough that I can count the holes made by each individual shot pelletAnd on each of these points this paper is 5-star-excellent. In fact, the only problem I had while at the range was with the duct tape I was using to hold the paper to its frame. Duct tape apparently sticks to EVERYTHING unless the current weather conditions are 90+ degrees (f) and 1800% humidity (you know, a standard S.E.GA spring day.). So, obviously some changes to my set-up are in order, but this paper worked so well that rather than using different paper, I will modify the target frame so that it provides the anchor points this paper requires, namely metal clamps, or furring strips to staple the paper to. Now if you will excuse me, I have a **LOT** of little holes to count to determine my pattern density at various ranges. .
