Nice pistol. Have any idea what the rate of spin is on the rifling???
 
Have one and this is a fair deal. They can take decent size game and are accurate.
Great for taking along in the woods where a modern piece might not be allowed.
It will only go up in price.
 
I got good results with .445" rb and a .010" patch, and 35 grns of 3f. With the long barrel, you could experiment up to 60 grns I would think.
 
Where I live you can sell a muzzleloading pistol to anyone, no FFL needed, but as soon as any loaded component is included then FFL is needed and the buyer needs a pistol permit. You might want to check the laws. Wouldn't want you to get jammed up

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that spin fast enough to stabilize a maxi ball or a powerbelt hunting round???
The 1:18 twist is basic for a lot of modern handguns. The two projectiles you mentioned are stabilized with 1:48 twist rates but 24" or longer barrels. In a Bounty this is almost a complete turn prior to exiting the muzzle.

I asked about these Bounty Hunters here a few months ago. I was told they were called 'bear guns' back in the day (middle 1800s) and Southerners used them to run with after their dogs treed a bear. A longarm would not be as useful as these.

They needed something light weight to get there quickly before the bear jumped down onto those dogs. The long training periods is what made these dogs expensive and valuable.
