Hi,
Does anyone know how I can make large round shot at home such as .150" and bigger to about .200" I know the Littleton shotmaker only goes to number 5 shot so that would be no use.
I been looking on the Internet for ideas but with no luck. I did wonder if this larger shot might be forged or swaged into shape using a press but again I can find no evidence thus far.
I've heard of people using a mold to cast shot but I should imagine this would take hours to make just a small amount this way.
Does anyone have videos or the methods used to make these larger shot sizes?
Many Thanks
