I just sent an email off to Jeff Tanner.

Thank you Daryl!

I have always wanted to make my own.... BOOO LITZ

I started handloading slugs earlier this year and the testing has been fun... but something was missing.

Maybe it is just me, but I find those DG slugs ugly and they just don't inspire confidence in me. But a ROUNDBALL... ahhhhhhh that is perfection!

I emailed Jeff and told him I wanted to order a mould but gave him the bore sizes of my double barrel smootbore and some other info and asked him to make a recommendation for the mould size. (I am guessing he is going to say .720)

I hear you about the spin and how it will curve, but, as you and I have established from the beginning of our conversations, we are talking a short range DG gun and as we've expressed before that means a gun that has good accuracy at 50-60 yards... (100 yards to an 8 inch square)... AND one of the primary uses is as a stopper: A gun that will stop a charging animal: point blank to 20 yards.
