Yes, it's all over the net. Yes I understand the lower power charge will not project the slug with the force or to the distance of a purpose built round.
But have you done it? I'd love to pick up a 25 round box for $5 and turn them all into slugs. Considering a factory loaded 12ga slug is priced at .80-1.20 each I can see the investment of time making it worthwhile. Would buying the slug and just dumping the shot be another viable alternative?
