I recently finished my first Trade gun, Looking for info on shooting shot in a smooth bore. What do I lube the wads with, and load recommendations for a Pedersoli trade gun? Would like to use for dove, pheasant, and turkey this fall.
 
This is as endless as you want to make it. Pre made overpowder cussion and over shot wads are sold, and good, but can be replaced with tow paper, wool or hempyarn ect, Go on you Tube and look up Dualist 54 smoothbore loading vid He is shooting a Fusil de chase but in preformance close to Perdisoli trade gun, that is very close to original british trade guns
 
Congrats on your new trade gun, how about a pic or two for our viewing pleasure? Thanks!
Here you go. it is a Pedersoli kit. My first musket.
