Vern,
Being basically lazy I must ask if you have a POC on those Hammond buck shot shooters.

Kbob, you just have to send them an email stating the caliber you want and the chamber you want to shoot it out of and ask if it's possible.
they got back to me within 1 day with a question I had.

I have an adapter to shoot .32acp in my 7.7mm Arisaka. It's okay out to 50 yards and great for letting little ones shoot the rifle. I quit using the thing when i started reloading since I could use cast bullets and small amounts of pistol powder to do the same thing better.
I think mine came from Ajax Grips. I don't know if they're still around though.

Still waiting on my ammo. Will give my accuracy results and chrono results as soon as it makes it. Depending on accuracy will depend in whether I will load for the round ir not.

Winchester 85gr fmj was averaging about 1820fps. Accuracy is horrendous at 50 yards. Next weekend ill try it at a closer range. I may also try the .32 insert.
What are you shooting in what ?

If you're serious about shooting a subcaliber, try the Hammond Game Getter.

I got one for my 30.06 and I couldn't hit a 12"x12" at 25 yards.

Mine shoots 1" groups at 25 yards, right at the top of the thick part of the lower vertical crosshair. Are you properly sizing your buckshot?
The trick is to get a hardwood board about 1" thick and cut a hole with a holesaw a little smaller than the sizing die. Get a steel shaft, small enough to go completely through the hole, and lightly chamfer the end.
Then put your buckshot in a dish with heavy motor oil. Put the die on the hardwood board over the hole, drop an oiled buckshot in the die, and tap it through with the rod and a mallet.

303tom, 7.62x25 through a mosin nagant with the chamber insert. This was really just for kicks and giggles. The insert is only $13.

Vern, what kind of price do those Hammond's run?

$45 Canadian, plus postage. They come in a nice box, with sizing die (a thick piece of steel with a tapered, well-polished hole. The box has compartments for blanks and sized bullets and will go in a jacket pocket.

Sounds very reasonable. I saw your post when you first mentioned it but didn't check it out bc I thought it would be more than im willing to pay. I think ill check it out now. Thanks for the info.
That bullet is a little small for the Mosin Nagant of course it is not going to be accurate.

Yea I wasn't expecting much but was not expecting just how bad it was. The .32 may be a little better. Im about to order Vern's suggestion as well. This is strictly to pass the time with some entertainment. It gives me a cheap toy to tinker with.
