    LaPan 3/4 scale 6 Pounder - Free Advice?

    One of our group just aquired a 3/4 scale 6 Pounder replica made by LaPan out of New York. I realize it's not legal for N-SSA competition, but we'd still like to shoot it locally.

    Does anyone one have any experience with one of these? I'm especially looking for a recommendation for ball size and powder charge.

    Do call Rob who can advise you. The first thing I'd want to know is not how much powder to use, but is it safe to shoot at all.
