Run_Rabbit85 8 Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 12mm lead shot ya cant beat it. high impact power and perfect size ya can get a cheap mold for 15 quid on ebay (size 2) and 10 quid of lead from the crappy will see you good for around 800+ shot atb Quote Link to post Share on other sites
