I was finally able to swage my lead slug over a plastic base. Plastic extends approximately 1/2 inch into hollow base slug. Swaging them together keeps base in perfect alignment with slug, locking them together at the proper size. prying them apart nearly destroys slug. This slug is .729, 12 ga. 660 grains.. Hopefully this will prove to be accurate in smoothbore as well as rifled barrels. Plastic is hdpe I formed in hydraulic press with heated die. Should eliminate skirt collapse and wads from being jammed into base of slug. I'm going to try to get some jacketed ones made this weekend and do some accuracy testing.
Thanks. D
