    cutting and crowning a barrel

    I would cone it. I’ve did several before and after tests with the Joe Woods tool and can’t detect a difference from the bench.

    Strange Day for Me in the Woods.

    I go to drink coffee in the stand and insult everyone around a campfire.

    KIBLER WOODRUNNER TALL SITE

    Mine shot way low with the original.

    Kibler SMR shooting help.

    I agree. I do find that it is always too windy for round ball at 100 yards.

    Kibler SMR shooting help.

    I generally start with an .018 patch on everything. You can start with 50 grns. Shoot three for a group at 50 yards, go up 5 grns at a time shooting a 3 shot group each time. Whatever load shoots the smallest group. I measure and log all the group sizes. I do this twice on separate days. I...

    Do You Actually Use Your Expensive Custom Guns or Keep Them as Safe Queens?

    I gun for clays and some bird hunting gets little wear and tear(unless it falls off the golf cart). My flintlocks don’t get that much wear going to the range or to the deer stand To each his own.

    Do you display your flintlock or other guns in your home

    In my cave I’ve got several thousands of dollars worth of guitars hanging on the wall. If I ever sell some and make room, I will hang some flintlocks. I only leave them out when I am developing loads shooting in cool weather.

    Long range shooting

    He is shooting cap guns with high ballistic coefficient projectiles. I like his videos but these things are not the same.

    Kibler fowler, a couple of photos,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

    To each his own. I’ve not built from a plank but have built some kits OTK. I’ve built some furniture and some luthier work. I really enjoyed the 4 Kiblers I’ve “assembled” myself and others. I think they are a marvel and get better with each iteration. The joy one receives from telling others at...

    Small caliber smoothbore?

    Not technically the same but if I may I can extrapolate my experience with modern shotguns. At normal hunting range the ie. The skeet field the 28 gauge(54 cal) is the full equal of the 20 and 12 gauge. Extensive records bear this out, including mine. The .410 ga shows. Much less percentage of...

    It was Kings Mountain, if memory serves.

    Kibler fowler, a couple of photos,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

    I’ve never built anything from a plank. I’ve put together other kits etc. The Kibler kits are magnificent, especially the newer ones. I was going to put one of these together for someone, but told him he would enjoy the assembly. He has not received his.

    Welcome from Dallas. I lived in Southwest AZ, Ehrenberg dor about 8 years. I occasionally had business in Kingman and thought it was cooler there, especially on that mountain.

    Considering a .40 caliber

    I have on occasion shot some 5 shot groups less than 3” at 110 yards with 27 grains of 3F with my Kibler. I think the .40 is better for longer distance than the smaller calibers.
