Don't forget the capability of using a cloth patch on those balls. If your rifle prefers lighter slugs, a round ball will be better than any foster-type slug, for range and penetration. The round ball can be hardened lead, whereas the hollow based slugs are soft and lack sectional density.
The cloth patch can also take up the extra room that is inside a brass hull, yet compress around the ball to grip the rifling and shoot cleanly- if lubricated. I like Track's mink oil or neetsfoot oil. For a stiffer lube for warmer climates, either mixed with about 40/60 with beeswax will work.
