I was watching a youtube video on that .36 cal Pietta Pepperbox Monstrosity by Hovey Smith. He loads 3 patched round balls into each chamber over 20gr of powder. I'm wondering if I can't get 2 - .44 balls into my 1860 Army.
Anyone try that and is there any danger involved?
Here's the video - skip ahead to around 6 minutes for his loading proceedure.
Question 2 - is it possible or dangerous to load 1 ball over birdshot into an 1860 Army?
