Hi Gents,
I have a New Orleans Ace that is smooth bored and pretty unpredictable as far as to where it will place a ball vertically on a target. Near as I can tell windage is good. I've been thinkin about loading it with shot or a buck and ball arrangement but I'm not sure of the best or safest way to do it. My first thought was powder-wad-shot then another wad. Sounds good but will the top wad become an obstruction and create a dangerous situation? Let me know what you think.
