    Harder Balls

    I am taking my grandson to Africa next year. He will be shooting trophies, I will shoot a few culls. One of the things he mentioned was he would probably need to take a few Cape Buffalo cows. I worry my pure lead balls will flatten out on their thick ribs. I shot a Cape Buffalo bull several...

    For 50 years I hunted all seasons and anywhere I went in the world with a recurve. Age finally caught up with me a couple of years ago and my back and shoulders won’t let me shoot a recurve well enough to hunt with. I always played with my muzzle loaders and now do all my hunting with them. Just...

    Cleaning my fowler?

    I have been shooting and cleaning BP rifles for 50 years. Seems like the older they get the easier they are to clean. I just finished up a Kibler fowler and have a 20 and 16 gauge barrel. They are hell to clean and I don’t know why. two different problems. One it just takes forever to get it...

    Kibler woodsrunner

    She is pretty sure she shipped it but can’t find a tracking number where She did. We waited a month for it to show up but it never did. They sent me another one and it is perfect. I already browned it and it is soaking in motor oil.’Life is good

    Tumbling balls in soapy water

    I just retired this year from a job that was 7 days a week 12 hours a day. Until summer hit I was fishing and shooting hogs but the 100 degree weather pushed me indoors. I built 5 Kibler kits and have cast 20 pounds of balls this year and the tumbling is just something to kill time until the...

    Flat spots on tumbled balls

I am just messing around with the tumbling for something to do to keep busy. I have already built 5 Kiblers this year and need to kill time...

    Flat spots on tumbled balls

    I can’t seem to come up with a consistent finish. I know it is not needed but I have nothing better to do. I have tried with graphite and without and thought I had the perfect recipe using soapy water. Then it just quit working. The last 50 I have played with have come out with big flat spots...
