Re: Want to make 12 or 20 gauge round ball gun

The Lyman sabot slug is supposed to shoot quite well. It is a waisted affair - weighing about 506gr. in WW and 525gr. in pure lead. Buffalo arms is a carrier and compared to prices up here, quite inexpensive on Lyman moulds.

The slug fits a red WAA12R shot wad perfectly - probably others as well, depending on the load. Use shot data or get the new Lyman shotshell loading book with data for this slug- and/or go through Ed Huble's thread - 12 Gauge from Hell for data with AA Steel and other powders.

The Lyman book will get you into the 1,500fps range with 2 3/4" hulls.
