daryl--- yea I can 'steal' some round balls from my 54 cal Lyman Flintlock. I am thinking of starting with 140 grains of 2F black (since I do not have 1F Black) underneath a 1.025" round ball. Then try a buck and ball with 3 .530" added over the round ball.

I can't wait to shoot it again. With the sun setting so early it is dark by the time I get home these days so shooting is now relegated to weekends and holidays.

I do plan I seeing how much powder I can get under these 1.025" round balls and be comfortable shooting it enough to shoot a few. I am also curious to see what accuracy I can get. One thing for sure---with thise massive quarter pound round balls I will not need binoculars or spotting scope to see where I hit!!! hahahaaaaaaaaaaaa
