:rotf: Only on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
On Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, you HAVE to shoot patched round balls.

Only to amplify on Rebel's comments...the faster twist is usually preferable in pistols since they operate on lighter charges which means slower velocity. This is where the faster twists help. Good luck.
