barrywhite 282 Posted July 1, 2021 Report Share Posted July 1, 2021 carbon steel , is a lot more expensive than mild steel . shooting from a catapult it will make no difference carbon steel or mild steel . good quality carbon steel balls will be made for a bearing race ect and made to resist wear mild steel will wear out very quick used in that environment . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Troutslayer 141 Posted July 3, 2021 Report Share Posted July 3, 2021 10mm lead hit like a horse. More expensive but when you hit something with them it doesn't get up! I have some for sale if interested? Atb Quote Link to post Share on other sites
