Breaking into shotshell reloading and bullet/pro. Casting, I already have all the gear I need and several loads but I'm curious if anyone has ever tried to make more professional cut shell or "wax" slugs with flex seal?
I would of course scrap one and measure the weight of load, fill it with seal then re weight it to figure out how much shot to remove to keep the weight the same as factory load and then dissect a few to see if the wad is gluing to the hull at all.
But figured I'd ask first. I have a box of actual breaching shells and man alive they are expensive, it would be awesome to figure out a way to make them on the cheap I have a can of flex seal someone gave me to mess around with so virtually cost is next to nothing.
I never wanted to use wax due to the melting hazard.
