    need held in rifle I.D.

    Yea youve got me there.Although the standard is a 310 ball and a .010 or.015 patch isnt it.Anyway I do plan to fire it as the powder difference could certainly cause a problem also.I sure do hope I dont have to go fileing on the sights or worse have it hit high. :thanks:
