About the .58 Calibre Percussion

The bore of the Civil War rifle-muskets — the Springfield 1861, Enfield 1853 and Zouave — and of the Pedersoli, Miroku and Euroarms reproductions, firing a .575 to .578 Minié or round ball over black powder or substitute. Muzzle-loading long arms are Category B firearms in Australia, and the .58 remains the standard chambering for black-powder service-rifle and re-enactment shooting.
