I'm running two "20's", a NW Indian Trade Musket smoothbore and a 1740's .62 cal German Stutzen rifle. Both, of course, flint. I've taken one deer with the NW gun and a number with the Stutzen. In every case, the ball goes in one side and out the other, smashing everything in its path. Both are using a .610 round ball on top of 120 grains of fffg. With its wide butt, the Stutzen is a joy to shoot. With its flat, narrow buttplate, the NW gun seems to hurt you damm near as much as the deer!

.61 round balls will do everything you need.
