Round ball size for 2 pistols

[Gunor]

Just bought a older Pedersoli Kentucky pistol and a H & A underhammer.

Pedersoli - is stamped 44 cal - and a ball gage measures .440+ (top of lands). I have some .433 balls and some thin patching (.007 or so). Might work, but need a little less rain...

Underhammer bore is measuring @ .350

Thinking of .429 and .340 diameter balls.

Should I go for a .424 diameter mold?

Thanks

I would shoot the balls that you mentioned while trying out some different patch thicknesses before settling on a mold.

Why buy a mold that may not be ideal for the Pedersoli pistol?

For instance, the Pedersoli manual lists using a .445 ball with a .010 patch in their .45 Kentucky pistol.

I would most likely go with a .429 RB and pillow ticking patch.

I think I am still back to ordering a .429 and .340 from track of the Wolf.

Just wanted some confirmation from a lot smarter people.

It just $10 or so for a hundred and shipping. But I need a few other items...
