I like how we have to have full size bore projectiles. I dont like how you cant shoot around ball in the 50cal or 45cal. Are you sure that is right?

Sharpshooter,

I am pretty sure the weight of a 50 cal roundball is in the neighberhood of 175 grains. A .54 cal roundball is around 225 grains. So with the weight limitations a .50 roundball would be prohibited. If I am wrong about the weight, I maybe wrong about this. However, if a .50 cal roundball is less than 210 grains and a 45 cal roundbal is less than 170 grains, then both are prohibited.

Happy Hunting, Phil
