short katahdin in line barrel

[canuck4570]

just baught a 20" Katahdin barrel for my Pro Hunter TC.... would like to know the best powder to use in this short barrel....

I would plug up the end of it, drill a touchhole into the side of it and build a flintlock around it. Then load it with real black powder and you will have a real muzzleloader, not a slow-loading 45-70.

Seriously, I don't think you will find much help here since this is a traditional muzzleloading forum. :v

Is that the flint smooth bore model?

Except for the Blanket gun and the Canoe gun I haven't heard of any traditional rifles with a 20 inch barrel so I can't be of much help here.

Of course, I don't have to mention that we don't discuss rifles that replicate designs made after 1865 or what it would take to actually shoot one of these "Newfangled things.
