Ive got an older traditions Frontier 50 cal with a 1:66 twist that I bought used. the previous owner only fire heavy conicals with a heavy powder charge in it and he had it for many years.the rifling is so shallow that it almost doesnt exist. my best groups with maxi balls is about 4 inches at 50 yards. I tried power belts and got one inch at 50. round balls get me around 2- 2.5 inches at 50. Im wondering if a ballett would be a better choice ( Ive never actually seen one).
questions:
1) with that shallow rifling would a ballett be a better choice?
2) any body got a picture of one?
3) where can a feller get a mould for them? ( too expensive to buy often)
after this up coming deer season I plan to turn that barrel into a smooth bore but its too close to make any drastic changes just yet
