Tried them in Pretty today, that's my Renegade flintlock with the gorgeous stock.
70 grains of Swiss 3f and a Harvester crush rib sabot.
Loading with .452 and .451 diameter bullets is miserably hard.
But these Winchesters are .450, and they load tight, but nowhere near like the XTPs. Happy! Happy!! Happy!!!
Accuracy was better too. Three, three shot groups were: 13/16ths, 9/16ths and 9/16ths. This at 50 yards. This with the factory blade front sight and T/C aperture rear.
For me, these are fantastic flintlock groups! Especially so because I have shot her since last October.
No klatches, and she lit percussion quick. No clack. All BOOM.
