I had one of those many years ago,
I took it to a local club shoot and got talked into a match between several black powder pistols and several smokeless pistols. It was their range.
Surprised me when they called my name as the winner.
They shoot very good.
The reamer will follow the existing hole. If you ream the cylinder bores round how do you know the cylinder bore center line and the barrel bore center line will match?
Dupont started making powder in 1802, and opened the Berlin, NH. plant in 1912.
Dupont powder was sold to Gearhart-Owens later known as Goex in 1972.
After the last explosion the Berlin plant was closed in 1997 and production was moved to Louisiana.
I have powder cans labeled "made in the...
all devices' that turn 'legal ' weapons into machine guns
I guess that means no more pants with belt loops.
Should make the china suspender factories happy.

I shot 30 grains of ffg in my .50 target shooting, and i shot a squirrel with a 90 grain load of ffg once.
Squirrels are small and whatever you hit is ruined. I got lucky and got a head shot...it disappeared.
I have a H&A underhammer with the same fast twist barrel. It will not shoot large powder charges accurately with patched ball. Mine will shoot one hole groups with 30 grain 3f loads.
