What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

[2 shots]

Yesterday I finally patterned my 16ga Kibler Fowler. I did a square load of 70gr 1 1/2f Swiss and that volume of #5 shot. Which according to my shot dipper is 1oz. Disregard my poor drawing. My turkey head ended up looking like a poor representation of a T-Rex

hi, nice pattern , can you tell us about the load as far as wads ect. [is the large hole a wad from a skychief load?] and what was the range on that shot? thanks.

Yup I did use the skychief load. Powder/nitro card/shot/fiber wad. Bought the cards and wads from TOTW, and I soaked the wads in my blend of bear grease ans beeswax. The hole is from the wad. Went through the plywood. Didn’t range it off but was 20-25 yds
