The smell takes me back in time to when I was a kid and paper shells is what we shot then.

The good old days, and that wonderful smell, takes me back to my youth, (and that is a while ago)

I hear this over and over and over from people, but I've never shot them. Do they smell like burning paper? I think I have a handful of 16 ga papers from my grandfather. Not sure if they're reloads or not.

That odor “smell” that we all are referring to is the paraffin in the paper that gets hot and released a vapor

Thanks, I didn't realize they were still made. I'll have to pick up a box to see what all the fuss smell is about.
