It would depend on caliber, for a .44 caliber you would use a .441 to .445 ball, for 36 cal use a .362 - .365 ball or conical bullet, You want to have your ball slightly larger than the chamber size so when seated you shave a thin ring as the ball is rammed into the cylinder chamber thus sealing the powder charge from moisture and cross fire and giving the best performance with your load.

Which powder do you use in 44 cal black powder pistol?
For a 44 cal pistol (not revolver) between 20 and 30 grains of 3F black powder or black powder substitute (like pyrodex or goex pinical) should do the trick. You will have to adjust the load to do what you want and to shoot the distance you want, but that should get you started. The above answer is stupid. Since most black powder pistols ARE revolvers. Fill the cylinder half full or a little more, if you do not want to play around with a grain counter,waste of time.
