Remember that BP needs to be compressed when loading, no air space. Your Colts will take between 18 and 22 grains, by volume , so you will need a measure.Sorry....I have black powder supplies to buy and now I need a flint lock.

I'll even make sure it's a Holosun, just to mess with bcannon.
What brand would you recommend for a revolver like that? I bet that ditch guy will help me mill the gun for a direct mount, don't want it to look weird after all.
