WANTED lead shot and round balls

[S.Kenton]

I like to buy some lead shot, #4, #5 or #6 lead shot. Also would like to try different sized round balls for my 62/20 gauge. Barrel mics at .061. When I see what round ball/ patch… or roundball over card combo works the best I’ll buy a mold.. Thanks!

Try Sage'soutdoors.com I just bought 3 lbs of number 6 shot from them last week. $13 dollars and change plus shipping $25.00 total. Could not find any anywhere else. Some places only listed 25 or 50 pounds at a time but usually were out of stock. I got mine in a few days.

Ballistic Products has #5 chilled lead shot...
https://www.ballisticproducts.com/Lawrence-Shot-Chilled-Lead-25_bag/productinfo/CLLAW/You can get 2 bags shipped for $19 by using code SHOT50.

They also have copper plated shot in #4, 5, and 6 in smaller bags, but it's over double the price.

That’s not a bad price, however I’m looking for smaller quantities to try so I can try and pattern. Then when I find the “ sweet load” I’ll order in bulk. Thanks… I’ll keep this company in mind.

As vtflatlander said, shot is hard to find in stock.
I recently drove 75 miles to each way, to pick up 10 bags for my unmentionable shotguns, and was thrilled to find a new supplier. Price wasn't horrible, and my cost to get it wasn't bad either. No way I could have afforded to have 10 bags shipped.

There are other places out there for shot, but BPI has the best selection when you make a choice of what you want.

How much shot are you looking for? I think I got some #6 around here someplace and I could spare a pound or two... enough to pattern a gun with anyway. Easiest way, though, would be to go to WalMart, buy some unmentionable shells and open 'em up with a Barlow, then you would have pre-measured shot charges. Might cost you ten bucks.... though I haven't priced those in a while. Most gun shops have partial boxes and loose rounds that you can pick through. They'll sell 'em cheap just to get rid of 'em.

Nuthin's cheap when it comes to unmentionable ammo these days.

I sent you a PM, thanks!

I’ve got some #5 and #6 shot. Bought it at the recycling center for $1 a pound! Strange what you can find there. How much of the #5 would you like?

I bought a gang mold for fishing sinkers off Amazon to mold my buckshot, it's cheaper than a bullet mold and does ten at a time.

What is "unmentionable " ammo? I have lead raw lead and balls and well, I don't want to sell something illegal!

 

[Kansas Jake]

On this site “unmentionables” are cartridges, cartridge firearms and inline muzzleloaders. It is somewhat a tongue in cheek reference here.

I believe I know what your saying. This is one of the reasons I like this group. I've been here a couple of weeks and have only seen good things!!

I have numerous molds and cast for friends from time to time. I have .60, .612, and .618 molds. If you need some cast for you, let me know. Perhaps we can trade for some of that plunder you are offering.
