Does .50 mean .50?

#1 Post by bigfathairybiker »

Ok, I've had a reply to my wanted ad for a .50 muzzle loader.
Then mentioned muskettooooonnnn is .577.

Will I require a £26 variation? or are the rules slightly different for muzzle loaders?

Don't know about muzzle loaders but a "one for one" (where you want to either retain a slot after selling or want to change the calibre of an empty slot) does not usually attract a fee in my neck of the woods.
The above post probably contains sarcasm or some other form of attempted wit, please don't take it to heart.

.50 is .50
.577 is .577

You need to put in for a free one for one variation.
