Round ball loads

[Walks with fire]

I have been looking for tables on exterior ballistics for various round ball loads and can't find much on the net. You would think there would be plenty but I can't find much on sidelock round ball loads,twists,energy, and trajectory tables for these guns. Any links would be appreciated greatly.

Ballistics calculator Software

The Lyman BP Manual has a good breakdown of barrels, twist, and load with muzzle and 100 yard velocity and energy. Punch that into the calculator to get trajectory.

Go with what Huntin Dawg said. You can also contact Thompson Center Arms at (603) 332-2333 for their black powder manual which will give you numerous loadings for various calibers utilizing both conicals and patched round balls.
