Likely the new “Hortonium” shot made by Horton & Sons. They are moving from the UK to Michigan. Boss is also a Michigan company and if they are having supply issues with Bismuth this would be a win-win for both companies to hit the ground running. It must perform pretty well to abandon bismuth completely, it’s going to take time to educate consumers on this new material. As far as I know nobody is saying what the alloy or blend of materials is so I am not sure it’s safe in vintage barrels.
