Oh boy, you must be across the pond in europe ey? I'm guessing you have a .45 caliber single shot pistole. here in the states we would use a .440 or .445 round ball with a .10-15 thickness 100% cotton patch. Lubrication can vary. If you give me more detail perhaps I can give you more info. Who makes the gun? What is the caliber? What size lead ball do you have? what kind of powder do you have available? ect,,--Previous Message--: Hi, I just bought a Pennsylvania pistol that : uses a .43 lead ball and patch. My question : is: What size should the patch be? What is : the best lubricant for the patch?. :
