WE found the EXCEPTIONLY shallow rifling in my brother's Sharps would not shoot any HARD lead bullets, whether paper patched or not.

It was only the very soft paper patched lead bullets that it would shoot, and with those, it was very accurate.

From the past, seems to me, 10:1 would cast around brinel 14.
