Anyone loading bismuth?

[Milton C Starr]

I was looking for some information on loading tungsten matrix without a shotcup in theory it should be fine but couldnt find anything concrete. I know bismuth will work without one, I plan on trying some more bismuth down the road since it can be bought in small 1lb bags to try. I read boss will sell their copper plated bismuth as loose shot if you call them so that might be worth checking into as well.

A few reasons I am looking at bismuth is I would like some versatile loads I could use for different game and my 10 gauge patterns it pretty good. So probably I will order some #2 bismuth and I see BPI has nickel plated 5s back in stock id like to try out as well. I also want to try ordering some paper 8 gauge cases but the shipping for 10 hulls is $78 ouch. I picked up a digital measuring wheel yesterday so next time I go to the range I can get a accurate 30-40 yard distance.
