You will be surprised at how mild the recoil is with loads around 85 - 95 grains. You're going to love the WHOMPABILITY.

I think you're right. Just thinking about how hard hitting that .570 caliber round ball will be makes me giddy.

I think I will be ready for a trip to Africa, if I could afford it. If not, I would love to go somewhere where I could smack a big old hog with one of those big balls.

The roundballs aren't too bad. I have a T/C Firehawk in .58 caliber and I tried the big .58 Maxi-balls in it once....WHOOOWEEE!!! Talk about setting you back in the chair! I didn't care for them at all. :nonono2: :nonono2:... I tried to get a 32" 1:70 .58 GM Flint barrel for one of my Renegades a few years back through Cain's and was told that the .58 flint was out of production so I settled for .54. As far as I know the .58 percussion can still be found.
