I recently acquired a Traditions Trapper pistol in .50 cal. with flintlock
ignition.
Unfortunately, the manual is just a parts diagram, with no suggested loads! The
barrel
walls look to be the same weight and thickness of my .50 cal rifle, but since
the barrel of
the pistol is only about 10 inches, I'm sure it can't burn the same amount of
powder. Do
any of you guys have experience with this or similar muzzleloading pistols or
have any
idea of loads that should work? The barrel twist is 1 in 20", so conicals
should work ok?
