Bad mouthing of people/double rifles??? hmmmm. I like double rifles. I like them alot. I stated that some people insist shotguns simply won't work on DG. At all... and I don't agree. At All. If that is taken as bad mouthing I'm sorry to hear that. Even worse, if that is construed as childish, wow, I am truly befuddled. Yet I apologize for any injury experienced by this.

Actually I would like to own a 470 NE double and happen to like the philosphy and approach of most double gun owners. In the meantime I am developing a double barrel slug gun for DG and one of the major pieces of the equation is:

SLUG or BOOLIT

I was wondering about solid copper round balls???. The soft lead balls I have handloaded and shot seem to be too maleable and susceptible to fracturing especially when hitting something as hard as BIG BONE. A DG hunter I have communciated with by phone swears to the devasting effectiveness of shooting tungsten carbide spheres in his smooth bore.

There is a company called SphereTec who makes spheres of high accuracy using everything from ceramic to brass to stainless steel. I was contempalting trying some but definitely wanted to see if anyone else had or if any experienced hand loaders had some input. Thank you so much.
