In looking at my muzzleloader supplies back-stock, I appear to have a half-million 58-cal unlubed roundball patches and no unlubed 50 caliber.
Are there any 'cons' to using an oversized 'wet' 58-cal round patch in a 50-cal ML? I plan on experimenting with three flavors...
1) Mr. Flintlocks Lube and Cleaner
2) Olive Oil
3) DL Permatex Hand Cleaner http://www.permatex.com/products-2/product-categories/hand-care/hand-cleaners/dl-permatex-blue-label-cream-hand-cleaner-detail
I should probably scratch the last two I listed. Otherwise my bore may become too contaminated with burnt residue, from all the overlapping from the oversized patch.
Maybe my cheap-azz-butt better go buy some 50-cal patches, if I plan on using all three lubes I listed here.
