After many years of wanting I finally ordered a Pedersoli 1777 Charleville from DGW. Its due to arrive shortly.
I was hoping to have a few questions answered about this particular firearm.
What bore size is this thing exactly? Everyone says .69.
I want to order a roundball mould and try patched roundball shooting.
Will measure the bore on the gun when it arrives and go from there.
I'll also make up some Buck and Ball loads.
What size flint are you having the best luck with?
Ordered some 1" English flints with the gun. Are the 3/4" better?
Does the ramrod have a threaded end? What thread pitch?
Which bayonet fits the best?
Thanks
