I can't tell with the rifling. It's not like normal rifling where you can easily see the hills and valleys. Its a mess. I'll try to look at it under some better light soon, maybe that will help.

Rem oil sounds like a decent patch lube. Thats what I got. I guess it does have rifling 😬 Can't believe I have a rifled flintlock. Seems like an oxymoron to me. I'm can't get a consistent reading in there. I tried spinning the bore around the jaws and hoping it would end up in one place...

I never noticed before that calipers had an inside side. I'm a total amateur I guess. Haha. Pretty handy feature. Anyways looks like .46 if I put pressure on it🤔. I think I'm seeing this right.
