Paper patching article

Hi. I'm chasing a copy of an article by the late Michael Petrov titled "Understanding the paper-patched bullet". I think it appeared in The accurate rifle magazine, Nov 2001. Can anybody help out? Thanks.

As an aside, Mr. Petrov wrote some really great articles.  I only have a couple that he posted over on the double gun forum where he seemed quite active.  If someone ever collected his articles into a book, I'll bet it would be popular.  At least with me Smiley

Chris,
Michael Petrov wrote two books on his life's research work on American custom gunsmiths the last published just before his unfortunate passing, I believe both are still available from his executor who is selling them off on EBay. He trades under the name jojodo. Vol. 1. is in very short supply and if your quick you may just get a copy.
EDIT I have just checked and both are available see:- (You need to Login or Register to view media files and links)
On the right hand side of the page click on SEE ALL ITEMS, you'll see all items Joe has on sale at the moment. As far as I am aware these were the only two books he published although he did write many informative articles.
Harry.

Thank you Harry.    I was aware of his books on the gunsmiths, but am more interested in his various magazine articles.  I've got just a few that he'd posted on the Internet, but don't know how many he wrote in total.   I found a nice article on shooting a pope rifle.

Chris.
