Well, surprisingly this combo was plenty accurate @ 45 yards. I went up to do some Grouse hunting and didn't see anything. So, I stopped by my place to shoot a few before heading back home. I didn't have any patches with me but I had some .652 balls in my pouch. So I loaded it up with 85 grains by volume of my homemade black brew a thin nitro card bare .562 roundball and a 1/2in well soaked olive oil felt wad on top. Shot six at my 8.5 x9 in gong well surprise, suprise a good group. I just may have to give a .570 roundball a try. I couldn't be happier with my Kibler colonial build! I just may use this combo for hunting this year very easy to load and acceptable for the type of hunting I will be doing.
