Re: bp rifle
Or instead of using .440 patched ball you could shoot .45 Lee REAL's through it. No patching and they work very well with either my 1:66 Ardesa Woodsman or my 1:24 Pedersoli. I'm currently using 35g of medium blackpowder

No idea, I've not chrono'd them. However they always hit the 25yd target where I've aimed the rifle.
