I am very knew to this and have a couple of probably stupid questions. 1: If I want to shoot lead ball ammo what type of patch do you need? I am assuming you can shoot this with a pyrodex charge as well as loose powder. I know you lose accuracy with round shot but I like the idea. I have been shooting the powerbelt bullets to this point and they of course do not require any kind of patches to function. 2: Know anywhere I can find these? Any help greatly appreciated.[B)]

  they have load info and patch info as to reccomeneded thickness.
  we were unable to get the 'reaquired' thickness of patch,so went a little shy.works fine,'minute of tin can' at 75 yds with round ball.they are more accurate than ya might think.
