New member here. Can I get some suggestions for round ball size, patch thickness and load for this rifle? Up until now I've only shot a .54 caliber and I don't know where to start with this this Thompson Center .45. I got it from a friend, he didn't know anything about it, but it looks to be in decent shape other than needing a new nipple. I'm looking for a mild target load for 50 yd off hand shooting for starters and eventually a deer hunting load.
