Just starting out in the land of black powder with a .36 Pietta revolver and wondered can anyone recommend a suitable make/model of oversize .36 ball mold for it.

How much oversize is right for a good seal and prevent flashover ? these are probably stupid questions - soz.

Thanks and regards

The usual solution is a Lee double cavity ball mould of .375" diameter.
