I shoot round balls. Of course, I am shooting a cap and ball rifle. I havent upgraded yet.

Nothing wrong with that. Steelforce has an awesome Ithica .50 cal. antique still in mint condition. We plan on it taking one on our videos this year. Round balls tear a nice hole through the whole wound cavity. Most round ball rifles shoot a maxi-ball if the barrel is rifled.

It is rifled and I have some maxi-balls. They add to the recoil and with a steel butt plate, I avoid all the recoil I can.

Completely understandable. I use to have an old Hawkins that would dang near break your shoulder.

Yours was a knock-off of the Hawkins anyway. (besides your brother had to finish her off for you)
