Can someone please give me a link to really cheap marbles and or ball bearings? I need them for 1/2 in barrels so if someone can give me a link to 8-10 mm ammo it would be highly appreciated thanks!

3/8" ballbearings are sold as "slingshot ammo"

Any toy store should also have them, and when all else fails theres EBay!

I agree with JSR - buy slingshot ammo/ball bearings instead... I used to have a lot of problems because of marbles - they aren't uniform so it was a real PITA to use them

Not to mention their sectional density being extremely poor...

You probably don't know how much they cost but 1 euro = 4 PLN
So they are actualy quite cheap

No amount of access to ammunition can compensate for being Polish, so I'm fine ;)

heh some of the sellers even claim they can make 'em in any calibre desired

if you're nice I might contact you with them - though I am not sure if they ship within EU

Even if they did it wouldn't help me, impossible to import anything ammunition shaped in epoxyland. Besides, I have a lathe and mill ;)
