Commonly referred to as "drop shot" for obvious reasons. Wink

It is fairly round, but not "perfectly" round. Probably good enough for a basic spuddy though.

Hornady makes round ball by swaging (I believe "O" buck and larger). This produces truly spherical ammunition.

Why do you want ball ammo anyway? A simple slug mould could be drilled into a piece of flat bar.

Not fancy, but far easier than round ball. Cool



@ Mark, cope and drag are the two mould halves. Sprue and parting line are the other terms. Smile
