Any reason not to cone a pistol muzzle?

[cjsoccer3]

I coned my .45 cal Kentucky rifle and think it’d be handy to do the same to the Pedersoli Kentucky pistol that I have. It’s a 10 inch barrel.

I assume if I do this then I won’t need a short starter at the range then? Any issues someone wouldn’t want to cone here?

Thank you!

The only reason I can come up with is that with only 10 inches of rifling in your barrel, you may not have any to spare. I don't know the answer, but it's something to think about.

I can't think of any reason not to.
