wiggy,


I have an idea for you. If you are looking for roundballs there are lead .22
caliber air rifle balls. I don't know if they would work or not because air
rifles do not use patches. If the barrel is smoothbore they might work. I know
very little about air rifles. Otherwise you could use conicals if the barrel is
rifled.
