I am interested in making my own lead shot and was wondering if anyone has successfully done this with home grown equipment? John Wooters shows a pic of a home made shot maker in a book he wrote, but no intstructions on how to build it. His shot maker looked similar to the Littleton shot maker (a bit pricey at $375.00 http://littletonshotmaker.com/.
I got a hold of some ooold plans for a "Francis Bros. Shot Pot" (I can e-mail these to anyone that's interested). The plans look a bit "Micky Mouse" to me, but maybe the darn contraption works. I haven't tried to build it yet.
