My first attempt to slug a bore went poorly. I think my slug is smaller than the bore size. Also the lead was cast poorly

@valleyforge I have a few sizes of ball coming meant for black powder pistols that I'm going to be using for a few of those. Hopefully I'll get the result I want, I got them a bit bigger than the expected bore and plan to tap them a little on the anvil to make them more pill-shaped.

@valleyforge you arent using a pre-made mold I take it?

Looks like a start at least.

@freemo oh no. I tried using a cartridge case. Looks like that doesn't work
