Would anyone know what musket the Swedish army would have been using around 1800?

This links hints strongly that they produced their own.

I found this website, this musket is a mystery, they believe it to be of Norwegian design.

This points to the fact that nations may have relied on local arms manufacturers and had their own designs and specs, but designs were close enough that adapting muskets of another nation was also an option. Makes sense.

Indeed, I would imagine this occurred alot during the Napoleonic wars. Captured muskets like cannon were very important to a continuing war effort, so the ability to convert those weapons by the simplest procedure would be very beneficial.
