I once owned and shot, at about age 19, for fun, a Confederate modified to percussion Hall 1819 three band rifle in nice shape, now long gone before I knew what I had; I'm now 77.
However, to answer the question, over the years I have often thought about having and shooting one of the Hall carbines bored and rifled to 58 in Saint Louis by Fremont.
Totally impractical for the carbine team match, but wouldn't it be fun?

As I recall, the chief problem of the Halls Fremont purchased, aside from their being Halls and the price, was that they were rechambered for .58 ammunition, but not rebored from their original .54 caliber.
