I am new here to THR and have a question on what I think is a stuck ball in an old Thompson muzzleloader. The rifle is about 35 years old and I am not sure when it was last used. I just received it two days ago and put my bore scope camera down the barrel. Attached are pictures of the very bottom or breech area. It looks like a ball with a hole in it? The hole goes all the way thru the ball. I know this because when I shine a light in the nipple/clean out hole I can see light coming thru the hole in the ball. Any ideas or suggestions?
