I've recently received a used cap-n-ball revolver from my dad. He hasn't shot it in years and I'm thinking about taking it with me to the range soon, but I want to be sure of the loading process. It came with a bunch of conical bullets and I have plenty of 3F, but I wonder about other stuff I need.
Its a brass frame pietta, but I'm not familiar enough to say what specific model. My dad suggested 15 grains of 3F for a load. Do I need to load powder > wad > ball or do I load powder > ball > wad? Whats the deal with cornmeal and crisco?
