    Lead shot

    I am considering a percussion shotgun but can't even find shot much less percussion caps. Can find shot for about $4 a lb.

    There are quite a few threads on here about making a shot dropper if you dont find any local.

The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph."

    My LGS has 7/ 7 1/2, & 8 shot in stock. I can’t find 4,5, or 6 shot. Just would like a bag to make some black powder equivalent loads for my domascus 10 gauge. Both LGS have percussion caps in stock.

    I have a buddy who works at Bass Pro. They are getting occasional batches of larger shot now. Might check there.
