    Looking for 12ga Slugs

    I'm thinking of casting my own foster-type slugs for 12ga but I was hoping to reload a few before I buy a mold.
    Does anyone know were I can buy some cast Lee and Lyman slugs- about a dozen of each? I'd like to try them out so I can decide which mold I should buy.
    Thanks-

    Im far from experienced at shotgun loading and have never loaded a slug. Is there a special tool you need to put that rolled over crimp on a slug?

    Lloyd,
    I use a regular crimp. On the cheap Universal Winchester hulls. Works every time. Using a Lee 1oz. Key Drive slug.
    You can miss fast & you can miss a lot, but only hits count.
