Question for some of the smarter fella's.
I've got a .58 T/C firehawk that don't shoot for beans. I did some figuring, and .58 is a 24 bore. If I had the rifling milled out of her, I'd have a modern interpretation of a smooth rifle, basically. It'd be a dandy rabbit/squirrel shotgun, with good sights to boot. But could I get somebody to do a jug choke on the gun? And what should I base loading against? .28 gauge shotguns are close to .50 cal, so a bit small. I've seen old .24 gauge shotguns, but have never seen any blackpowder loading data. Any help would be appreciated.
