Hi everyone,
So, I'm relatively new to muzzleloading. To date, my son and I have put together a kit and he has purchased another flintlock to go with it. He really likes the traditional stuff. I like it too but I actually have something else in mind.
With everything I think I would like to do with muzzle loading I will probably need more than one rifle. It is usually that way.
1). First off is there any such thing as an inline muzzleloader that shoots round ball. I'm assuming that this means a 1/66 twist? Can faster twists be used if I drop the powder throw down?
2). Next, is there an inline muzzleloader that shoots non-sabot conicals.
3). Does anyone pour their own projectiles.
4). Also concerning sabots, does anyone shoot roundball with them? How about pistol projectiles?
5). Finally, concerning sabots, what would you use if you weren't able to purchase commercially manufactured sabots?
I know this is a lot. Any input is welcome, I'll really appreciate you help. Thanks,
Paul
