[QUOTE="Wobblyshot1, post: 4969076, member: 9066"] 13/16" with modern barrel steel will be fine. Don't know why you'd want to shoot anything other than balls in a .45 flintlock....perfectly adequate for a Tennessee whitetail if precisely placed at a reasonable distance. The twist may be a problem with conicals, but with that said, I once, just for testing, shot some 250 grain Lee R.E.A.L. bullets from a 50 caliber plaines rifle of mine. It had a ball twist and groove depth but surprisingly shot that bullet well out to 50 yards. [/QUOTE]
