How it works, in principle
How it works, in principle
With the chambers open at both ends, a cartridge (powder and ball made up as one unit) goes in from the back instead of being loaded loose from the front. White made the chambers slightly conical, smallest at the front, "in order that a cartridge may be inserted easily at the back, but that the ball may fit tight when it arrives in its place".

What came of it
Once cartridges carried their own powder, ball and ignition in a metal case, a revolver could be reloaded in seconds from the back. Smith & Wesson built their first cartridge revolvers under a licence of White's patent.
