Go to the comments on the Cabelas site. There you will get feedback on what size works well.
I did that with my Navy and got .454. It worked first time out.
YOu can also use Midway's feedback also.
Lots there.

this post.And yes I need to wait before the gun comes in to check to be sure.

You are 100% right.BUT JUST HOW LONG CAN YOU WAIT TO SHOOT A NEW

+1 on the .375. That is what we always used, also both in remingtons and colts.
Have fun with it.

I've used both .375 & .380. Both work fine. There is so little recoil that I (so far) have not seen "ball creep" in the 36s using the .375s. If there was any wear on the chambers the .380s would fill the bill (literally). If you got the LEE .380 or the Sharpshooters (buckshotmold.com) 0000 buckshot mold you would not go wrong. The LEE double cavity molds have served me well for about 20 years. I recently got the buckshot mold (it casts TEN balls per throw) and the balls aren't perfect spheres like the LEE mold throws but for CAS matches they are plenty good enough.

.375" is the standard for the caliber and I would try that first.
