Correct - or u can pick it after its loaded to and see what your gun says to do.Do you leave the pick in, while dumping powder and seating PRB?

Fifty or larger for elk with conical bullet. .54 or larger with round ball. .45 with conical bullet or larger for deer. For now.In some states, Colorado comes to mind, 50 is Not legal for elk anymore, as I understand it.
I am specifically planning to hunt with only a PRB. Which is why I settled on .54Fifty or larger for elk with conical bullet. .54 or larger with round ball. .45 with conical bullet or larger for deer. For now.

When I'm wrong, I'm wrong.Fifty or larger for elk with conical bullet. .54 or larger with round ball. .45 with conical bullet or larger for deer. For now.
Let me PM you.
I’m ok with that minimum for round ball. Elk aren’t pushovers. That said, my .40 caliber rifle launches a 400 grain paper patched bullet at 1400 fps and it will stack elk all day long but the Colorado division of parks and recreation, in its infinite wisdom, thinks it’s not enough power for elk… hmmmm.
And… I probably have a spare TC lock laying around here.I have a TC 54 with the original barrel and the Green Mtn. 66 twist round ball barrel that I could sell. The only downsides are that it's a percussion and the lock is missing. L&R sells a drop in replacement for the TC. PM me if interested.
Sure thingLet me PM you.
I found mine, a Pedersoli Blue Ridge Frontier flintlock in 54 cal., at Cabela's in 2013. It's a tack driver and accurate with the right load. Don't know if it's a maple deluxe but a fine looking rifle. It was in the now defunct Bargain Barn for $480, the owner returned it because he couldn't figure out how to shoot it.trying to find a Pedersoli (even a Taylor’s branded) Frontier Maple Deluxe .54 Flintlock.
Rather than try to describe or elaborate on what French Colonial said this vid showcases the vender market fairly well. Gun makers, gun smiths, barrel makers, accoutrement of all sort and manner new and used, if its black powder related it'll be there usually in quantity. Several day event.
BRAVO !!Pedersoli uses a very long chambered breechplug. It hurts reliability, particularly the first shot. That is not acceptable in a hunting rifle to me. The general styling and build techniques are not very traditional. The stock is goofie looking, the barrel is not swamped. Pedersoli's, overall quality has slipped quite a bit in the last few years.
Based on the Frontier price and what it is trying to be, but failing................
Drum role please,
Get a Kibler Woodsrunner
Seriously, given the price, the Kibler kit rifles are the best available today by any objective measure. You will never regret getting a Kibler.
