    What's in the stock compartment? Just curious. The bullet mold?

    It’s called a patch box holds patches for patched round ball
    Rule of thumb for this rifle would be a .440 ball with a 0.010 cotton patch round it makeing bore dia.450 (45)
    Some will use a thicker patch I run a .50 and use a 490 ball with a 0.020 patch so im running 0.010 oversized but it’s what works in the rifle for best accuracy
