Canning wax bullets?

[Soundguy]

We used to play around with magnum primers in .38Spec.
Wax would work, we just jammed the case down on a 1/2" or so thick bar of soap like a cookie cutter.

There's a thread up now that talks about converting cases to take a 209 shotgun primer.
It'll make a wax boolit zip right on along.

cowboy action shooters here do that.. 209 primed 38 brass with wax bullets.

Anyone have a link to a video on how to do this conversion? I have searched and think I am just using the wrong key words to get a result. Thanks

“C” drill bit. Depth of drilled out primer pocket is the most important spec. I also chamfer the primer pocket to help seat 209 primers.

Or just buy them here

If you have a 22, try some of the bird shot shells. Although I tried as a kid, don’t think I ever killed anything with it. It definitely frightened critters away. A single projectile, as long as it holds together, coud easy kill a small critter.
