Varmint - repelling boarders load
I sure this has been brought up before but in looking back a few pages I didn't find it. Opinions please guys. Good idea-bad idea. I've been thinking of buying some larger shot #2 or larger but not quite Buck for varmint-home defense loads. Not only is this type of shot not carried in my local gun shops but buying it and having it shipped is costly. On to my idea. I have on hand, new 3" hulls, Steel powder among others and BPI MG42 wads. BPI Advantages manual has a 1 1/8oz for steel shot load using these components. What if anything would be wrong with loading Crossman copper washed .177 BBs approx. 50 of these weigh 490gr. and fit perfectly in the load, nice crimp. 6000 of these are under $10 (BBs) That would build 120 shells. and be more than I'd ever load for this purpose. Thoughts? Gp
