[QUOTE="Gregger, post: 1467925, member: 105695"] If i dont swab the barrel my accuracy goes to hell after 3 shots. Swab with rubbing alcohol it works great. With these old side locks it could be any number of things causing bad accuracy but it sounds like the main culprit is your twist rate. Try shooting some patched round balls at the same distance and see how accurate they are. You would be surprised how much damage a .54cal ball can do. [/QUOTE]
