Guys
I have found some cast BIG Bore Pellets, Eat your hearts out, 50 cals.......LOL
They are .685" diameter on the head/base size, length of .800" long, and weigh in at 533.0 grs,
and cast out of lead, possibly wheels weights and have the Lyman look to them.
They look like the Winchester, Flat Nose, hollow tapered inside base.........
Any Idea what air rifle that shoots these pellets?
I don't think they will fit my QB.........LOL
Tia,
Don

Pics, link ..? that is just a touch large for it to be a 16 gauge foster type slug... 16 Gauge bore diameter is .662.... just checked to be sure...

I think there were also some 69 caliber(15 gauge) flintlock muskets..?
Did a search

1600 grains of "Pure Awesome" (should give away its source) .82 Caliber (20mm) JSB .25 King Heavy for comparison.

Holy Snackbar, Thurmond
I hope you have a GOOD lead supply, as you need it............LOL, casting for that Beast.
I'll bet the recoil is worst than the 12ga slug shooting, from my experience shooting a 50 rd course...........
I have a limited pellet collection, 25 cal is the largest so far,
a 20 mm pellet would be the talked about one, at 1600 grs you only get 4 pellets per pound, Ouch.
Think about how many smaller pellets you could get from 1- 20 mm pellet, ;)
almost a can full of Normal smaller ones.
I am just setting up to cast pellets, building a new pot and getting NOE molds etc,
further down the DARK hole I slide..............LOL
Thank you,
Don
