But most clubs insist on guns being in proof if you want to fire it on a range.
Of course being m/l shotgun you can use solid shot.
I shoot and I vote

Not the clubs I belong to
Re-enacting would want it in proof though
Being a shotgun I can use it anywhere reasonable with the land owner's permission. For ball I could shoot it at Bisley who are H/O approved and have no MKE/bore limitation for BP only guns on most of their ranges.
Have to be a lead ball though, iron is a bit too risky without collosal windage.

Why do you want to shoot an historic piece? You can get modern repros that are safe to fire, and you won't be damaging a piece of history in the process.
