The 000000 I cast the other day I decided to roll between two pieces of steel today to kinda round out the spruce area . So while at the shop today I rolled about half of what I cast . When I got home I loaded two rounds with International Clays and six pellets with buffer . And shortly I shot one from the right and one from the left at 30 yards . BOTH barrels tightened up the pattern noticeably although POI was a touch left of POA . When I got back in the house I loaded two more for Damage Control Tuesday evening !

Hopefully we’ll see Tuesday evening ! That was at thirty yards I have half a notion to try out to forty but hold a touch higher and a touch right .

I ordered the .775" roundball mold for punkin ball loads in the hammer 8 . The nammerless 8 I have has a slightly more open bore as it was made for buckshot or atleast the factory letter stated it was to shoot close with buckshot . SO I think I might order a pair of roundball molds from Tanner a .785" to try in the hammer gun and a .795" to try in the hammerless gun .

These are punkin (round) balls . I doubt I ever buy another slug mold , I have the one that’s to big for the chokes in my tens and I can patch it up enough to work inside my parameters . One of those molds comes from the maker then you send it to the hollow point guy to make a base plug . By the time it’s done you’ve got over $200 invested . I’ll just make do with the slugs I already have . These roundball molds from Tanner’s in the UK are about $45 each plus shipping .
