What is the diameter of a TC Maxi Ball?

[workhorse]

I am about to place my order at Bullshops but I don't have a measurement of my bore. I know that maxi balls are a bit tight, and I believe those are .504, which would lead me to think a .503 conical would be perfect. Am I correct on MAxi's diameter?

I would like to place the order this weekend and I don't own a micrometer. I have a knight disc extreme 1 in 28" twist

accodring to my midway USA book the .50 caliber maxi ball made by Lyman is .504 in diameter. So the .503 would be good. What kind of rifle are you going to be shooting them out of?

Thanks Cayuga! I placed my order today, although I ended up going with Dave at No excuses rather than Bull Shop. While Dave is a bit more expensive, his style of customer service fits my needs better. Thanks again.

What rifle you shootin them out of? Did you order the 460 grainers?

I am shooting a knight disc extreme and I did get the 460 grain. Dave says that his 490 are a little too long to be legal in Colorado. I'm looking forward to seeing how they pattern.
