Mick MacAnselan Posted July 17, 2006 Posted July 17, 2006 For those who have Pedrsoli Queen Anne pistols, what size balls do you shoot? I know it's a '.50 caliber' pistol, but would that mean a .490 or .495 ball or something else? TIA. The Dread Pyrate MacAnselan aka Mick
HarborMaster Posted July 17, 2006 Posted July 17, 2006 I shoot .490 with a greased patch in mine. I am not Lost .,I am Exploring. "If you give a man a fire, he will be warm for a night, if you set a man on fire, he will be warm for the rest of his life!"
HarborMaster Posted July 18, 2006 Posted July 18, 2006 .05 just doesnt provide enough windage. Especially with your patch. Also consider this., after 1 shot the barrel will be fouled and it would be difficult to load a 2nd or 3rd time., youd be cleaning between each shot. I usually keep a tooth pik in the vent during loading.,then pull the pik and prime the pan.., only cleaning every 8 to 10 shots. Definitely run the 4-Ninety :) I am not Lost .,I am Exploring.
