Howdy folks:
I'm in a quandary?
I'm hoping to shoot my .45 cal. flinter in one of the postal matches, but I need lead round balls? I haven't shot the FrakenFlint since 1977. I have everything but the round balls. If memory serves me correctly, I used to shoot Speer swagged .437" dia. lead round balls with a .015" patch? I'm out of the NOS that I used to use, so I got to looking online. I CANNOT find a .437" round ball anywhere. Am I that far off about about the size? I know my memory ain't what it used to be, but danged, I thought for sure that was it??!! Someone please let me know if I'm that far gone, or are .437" just not made anymore? Thanks.
God bless:
Stoney
