    I have loaded and shot it
    Kills ducks great

    IMO it isn't cast , it is impact formed out of chunks cut from a "wire" core
    Some pellets have what looks like a vent hole tit of the pellet metal sticking out slightly

    Not sure exactly sure of the make up
    But it is Tungsten-based
    So I don't think it would cast worth a hoot

    Thanks..
    I've cast bullets for years.
    But I'm playing with Buck-shot and slugs, I have a feeling that supplies are going to get low, and I want to ba able to make waht I can,
    I can make a shot dripper for small shot if I have to,, but I have many other projects,, on the list first.

    the banded shot looked interesting,

    Thanks!
    Jim

    I was thinking the same thing. I wonder if it'd work better than round buckshot even if you cast it out of lead.

    I picked up some ITX for next season. I can make a case of shells last me two seasons it seems, so I got a bag of 2's and a bag of 4's. Am interested to see how it does compared to steel.
