I've seen the loading process for a Sharps that cuts a paper cartridge open and I've always seen loose powder on top of the block which the shooter blows off. I'm guessing they'd object to that operation.
What is left besides brass cartridge black powder?

The catch is they require any BP shooting be done with pre-measured loads to "avoid any loose powder handling on the firing line".

Pouring powder into a measure on the line is off-limits.
Pouring powder from the measure into the barrel (or cylinder) is OK?
What have their rules accomplished?
