Hi
I have a hawkins .45 rifle with a 1:48 twist, I have been shooting conicals from it and shot my first black powder deer with it last year.
I just bought some round balls and patches just for plinking but i have been wondering if this would be suitable for deer. The balls weigh 129 grains.
There is lots of info for the 50 cal rifles but hard to find anything for the 45.
