Captchee, now that is so very important and I am glad you brought it up. Every barrel should be measured to figure out fit. Rifling depths vary all over the place too and that makes a huge difference in what can be loaded and what will be accurate.
What I shoot will not go in other barrels without a sledge hammer.
You must work with what you have so there is no place for any arguments at all.
I still say a round ball rifle or one that uses Maxi balls is SOOOO much easier to load then a lot of the inline rifles.
Friends bring those things here to sight in and I seen too many of them forcing the ram rod against a tree to get a bullet or sabot in after only one shot.
How I hate to wipe a bore between shots when hunting.
What I found and use in my rifles will NOT work for all guns so I will never dispute what anyone else shoots.
