Dear Troops,
I'm sure one or many of you know exactly what size the ball was in the original .69 Smoothbore buck & ball paper cartridge. The shot size would be nice also if possible, perhaps even the thickness of the paper used although I realize this is probably pushing it, but you don't know unless you try! I want to try some historically (Perhaps hysterically?) accurate ammo just for fun :?
Thanks for the kind help this forum has always given.
