A little more detail. We need just enough #10 shot to chronograph at several yardages, (15 to 25 yds.) and do pattern and penetration testing. I've asked around a bit, and #10s don't seem to exist out here, and I don't want to throw a lot of money at it.
These old timers may have been on to something, (I think I know what it was). I would like to confirm just what happens, when the "rubber meets the road", so to speak.

it was called "dust" maybe its whats loaded for pistol shotshells, but as i understand it was used by those that collect bird specimens for taxidermy displays
