 You would do well to put either and 18-1 or 16-1 twist barrel on the rifle.

Twist should be calculated form the length/ weight of the bullet and the velocity. Black powder restricts the velocities to 2000 FPS or less so the length becomes the guide in this case.
Little powder much lead shoots far kills dead.
