BS40liam 203 Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Does anyone cast and sell lead balls for catapults as I'm just quite new to the catapult scene and have only been using small marballs and stones to practice with in the garden at coke cans, but now I want to get out using it on woodsy while walking the dog! Hope someone can help atb Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sheffield Catapults 71 Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 If you are going to be making them regularly I can't recommend Lee Precision Mould's enough. Steel doesn't pack a big enough punch for hunting purposes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
