Welcome from Fayetteville.

I'll start a conversation with you to keep this section just for introductions.

I have your #10 caps and black powder to get started.

Come to our black powder match this Saturday at our club range off Hwy 87 near the Blade County line.

I started a Conversation (PM) with you. Just look at the "envelope" symbol to the right of your moniker and to the left of the "Bell".

Howdy again. I'm not really familiar with the Cimarron Model P. But if you have some calipers handy measure the mouth of the chambers . A .451 lead ball may work as well, but I agree with Ed C.that you can't go too wrong with the .454 if its soft lead.

Actually get a slightly larger bearing surface contact all the way out the pointy end, and are less apt to shift under recoil.

....

What I settled on because is a cimarron Model P black powder .44 which is due to be delivered this week

....

You sure about that model?

The Cimarron Model P isn't a cap and ball revolver, it looks to me like an 1873 Colt Single Action Army, which shoots 45 Long Colt cartridges:

A fine gun, indeed, but wrong forum. Sorry.
