Default barrel lapping

just wondering about what i can do to fine tune the old flinter this year since the seasons ending soon....too soon.....i got the lock tuned and firing like a champ....got the stock refinished....blackend the brass....everything i can think of....but i heard of lapping barrels and getting better groups....figured it couldnt hurt?? i shoot a 50cal tc hawken flintlock.....patch n ball and conicals are my projectiles of choice....may just try a sabot one day....but dont know how accurate they will be....but should i lap my barrel? i dont know how old the gun is.....dont know who had it before me....it was clean when i bought it....but definently used.....someone just took good care of it....and i bought it.....should i lap the barrel? how do i do it?? thanx alot......just looking for a offseason project......along with working on a great clover leaf cutting group theres not much more i can do to that gun.....
