Greg,
The largest caliber that I've seen commonly in 7/8ths has been 50. This is pretty thin walled and a sturdy breech system (for both cap lock and flint) is what I would recommend if considering its use. Plan also low depth dovetails for sight installs etc.
Hope this helps your decision making in your considerations.
Ray
