Musketoon or blunderbuss Help

As you say, that is going to be a real problem unless you are going to shoot patched round ball from something like a Hawken, Great Plains rifle or some kind of Kentucky long-rifle look-alike. A .45cal PRB -weighing around 145gr and downloaded to around 1200 fps, is still doing 464 ft lbs - that might do you.

Had you set your heart on a gun like that?

cheers tac .45 hawken with prb something to look in too,
poss another range

Jumping in here, and I may be off base, but 475 ft-lb sounds like an indoor range?

You allowed to use BP there? Unless you have the ability to wash down the range, this is an explosion hazard.......

Might just be a short range with no cover except on the firing point - be interesting to read what the querent says about that little problem.
