Hello;

I have a Numerich Arms Hopkins & Allen Under Hammer that I picked up last fall at an auction.I posted some pics here shortly after. I used a digital caliper to measure the bore and got a reading of .57+- depending on if I hit a land or groove. What would be a good bullit style and weight and powder loads for target shooting and hunting deer here in NH. What caps should I use. I've never shot BP before, just cartridge riffles and pistols. Thanks
