Pretty expensive to load a sawn-off shotgun 😁
@GustavinoBevilacqua Ha! Yeah, they're spendy for balls but the dimensional tolerances and rigidity are amazing!
I usually visit the local garages begging for broken ball bearings, but those are another level.

I usually take apart bicycle wheels for scratched ball bearings that I clean and divide according to their tear status

@rastinza @GustavinoBevilacqua Yeah, I recover bearings and balls as much as possible. Maybe one day I'll have a reason (and budget!) for the carbide balls but today is not that day.
