Would the spread with the cylinder choke also be indicative of the accuracy of a muzzle loading smooth bore musket?
To a degree yes, for that you’d ideally want a uniform barrel. But then again you don’t have rifling, so you’re already not on a great foot.
Sorry I don’t know anything about guns, but is this the barrel getting smaller right at the end? What would happen if you were to fire a solid slug?
Nothing good. It would damage the choke and possibly banana peel the barrel.
Chokes are removable, and it would be advised to remove them for shooting a slug.
