If the stock of this gun is cracked/split, it might be prudent NOT to shoot it until the stock is properly repaired. That wood is at least 142 years old, and the "next" round it fires just might be the one that does big damage.
My choice for best repair of English guns is The Stock Doctor. Others may be good, but this shop is proven top drawer. Chris Dawe is another superb choice.
If you simply must take the shooting risk, I'd say stay with 3/4 oz. loads.
