I have heard that it is the amount of powder that is required to load your muzzle loader.

Dennis you are on the right track....in the ole west a bullet was a nickle and so a special small glass was used that measured out to a nickle's worth of drink..a man that had no money ,but a bullet could trade it for a "shot" in a "shot" glass...so a shot and shot glass had to do with the bullet...JAMIE
