You gotta post pics...

If it's what I remember, the octagon to round barrel then it's a 1-66 twist, perfect for round balls...

I have a 50 cal flintlock Half octagon to round 1x66 32 inch barrel. I use 90 gr of 2 f black and a 490 ball.

working on that.. sorry..battery dead on cam ..tomarrow

I have the same rifle. It is a 1-66 twist I believe. Mine shoots 90 grains of powder and a patched roundball excellent...

thats an awesome deal. i have the flintlock version. i also snagged a new 21 inch barrel off ebay. as a carbine its carries nice but looks funny. CONGRATS!

looked at the box 28 inch.50cal flintlock full oct barrel with QLA any est of man date?

Jeep, I'm almost positive the PA Hunter had a round barrel. But I've been wrong once or twice before. It did come with a slow twist for round balls. (either 1:60 or 1:66) My friend had one and he used it quite a bit with good success. His shot buffalo ballets good with 100 gr of FFFg.

mine is full octagon. i dont know what years they changed from the half round.
