A freind has a mould from Do-It that is listed as a sling shot mould
It works well for buck shot in shotgun loads

But it isn't exact enough to use as revolver projectals
Maybe if run thru a sizer

Over 20 years ago I bought an aluminum slingshot mold (manufacturer unknown as it is at the cottage) that cast maybe 20 sort of round pellets maybe around 30 caliber. Not a precise tool to say the least - might be totally a cast product. Waste of money. However, a better tool could do better. A Lee single cavity will do the job if you are extremely patient, which I have done.

Lee makes single cavity moulds in .308, .311, .319, .330 & .350. I think the Midway prices are $14 or so.

I bought one each of the Do-It roundball molds.(they have 2 sizes for the round balls) (and a whole pile of jig molds) You can make a big pile of round balls in short order. the only real problem is not haveing a sprue plate, so you have to cut them off. I found that I could pour the mold, then take a sharp flat blade screw driver to the last set I'd dropped and knock the sprues off without too much effort. they didn't all turn out great, but it was definatly a worthwhile investment.
