I can imagine you peering in there like Carter into King Tut's tomb!
Spiders, smurfs, who knows!?
Very hard to generalize on these, as some were made with smaller powder chambers, and some larger powder chambers.
I had an old Enfield musket, and it's breech was larger than bore, but that was just Very bad pitting!
Look forward to seeing what you find.
