    Weighing round balls

    For .440 and smaller, I segregate by .5 gr. .530 and bigger, by 1 gr.

    Weighing round balls

    Either plastic cups or bowls. Anything that will keep them separated until I find the average weight on the high end.

    Weighing round balls

    I start weighing them and put them into the different weight categories and throw the lighter ones back into the pot.

    Weighing round balls

    I had trouble with consistency with Hornady. 440 balls in the past... some as high as 40% being -2 gr off average. I weigh whenever I get a chance and write on the outside of the box the Ave. weight.

    Howdy from KS

    Don't know exactly where in Kansas you're at, but Kaw Valley muzzleloaders put on a good shoot just outside of Frankfort, KS.

    Questions after range day

    I've always heard it called "Dragon's blood" and indicated near perfect ignition. I've never had any issues when present. Good luck, Shoot straight and God bless, Rodd

    First deer with kibler colonial

    It is quite satisfying... especially since it has been raining here since Friday night! I went out Saturday with a towel covering my lock, so I was concerned about ignition after being out in that, but it went off as if I loaded it just before the shot! Quality products just work!!!
