Just received a new Uberti 1849 pocket. Very beautiful and appears well made. Was told to use a .321 round ball. Can't find a mould this size. O-Buck (320) was suggested, but no longer made. Lee .319 RB Mould? Any suggestions from other .31 shooters would be appreciated.

My Lee .319 drops more like 320/1. Also you could add a little tin to make it drop a little larger if it drops small.

Thanks, I'll go with the Lee .319.

I bought a five pound box of single 0 Hornady buckshot from Track of the Wolf for mine. It is probably a lifetime supply considering the gun takes so long to load (no loading lever on mine),
