    Thanks for that link it is very interesting. Casting lead blanks in a multiple mould and then swaging them looks like the way to go for the home pellet maker. It may also be the answer for me since I shall need lead ammo for a 9mm airgun project that I have in mind. 9mm lead airgun ammo seems to be virtually unobtainable either in UK or Spain.

    Glad of help, they are very helpful to send a few samples for me to try out together with my order.

    i have not cast any pellets yet but saving it for a boring rainy day.

    not really care about accuracy as long as its strike the target upon impact.

    I've made something similar myself for swaging pellets but quickly got bored with it. 56 quid for the jobber (plus the smelting pot etc). Even at a tenner a pot for pellets that's at least 2500 good quality pellets. I don't think my sanity would survive making 2500 of those albeit very nice looking pellets!
