I finally had a chance to get to see how my Fowler shot with round balls. I was very happy with the first load I tried. I was out of .600 and .610 balls so I grabbed some .575’s and some .02 thick patches and headed to the back 40. It was super easy to load and did about 8” for 12 shots at 60 yards. This was with my elbow rested on my truck bed. The first 3 shots were the worst, but once I got the hold right it shot really good. It was my first time shooting a smoothbore with no rear sight. My TC Renegade that is bored to .625 smooth shoots good too, but it uses the factory TC rear sight.
Another thing I was really happy with was that all shots loaded easy with no swabbing in between shots.
