    Exclamation Bear Buster Slugs!!!!!

    Does anyone know if Greg Sappington is still producing his 1043 grain slugs for sale?? I bought a bunch from him a few years back, and absolutely loved them!!!! If anyone talks to him on a regular basis, or knows him, could you please find out for me?? I did send him a PM, so I'm trying to reach him any way I can.

    If anyone reads this...and knows of other slugs from board members that I could purchase and load...that are very similar to Greg's Bear Buster specs...please let me know. I'd be open to trying others, but am hoping Greg is still casting slugs for sale.

    Greg is an internet bud but we haven't been in touch for a while now. Last time we e-mailed he hadn't been working on slugs for some time.

    I have a photo of his 1000+ grain slug mould but I wouldn't share it without his permission. It is his design. If he is not still selling slugs he may allow you to use his design.

    If not Accurate Molds has production designs for 12 ga. slugs up to 1480 grs. so moulds are available if you are a caster and Tom will cut you what you want if you don't like what he has.

    If you are not a caster and Greg isn't selling then maybe you can buy a mould and pay someone to cast for you. At least that would keep you in slugs.

    Hopefully Greg will respond and sell you some slugs.

    There is a 10 gauge slug mold on the usual auction site. 620 grains.
    Not mine - got nothin to do with it.
    I used to be afflicted with the bigger is better disease but I got over it.
    The seller tells me that the bands are .720 and .705 diameter. Intended for a shot cup.
