Lead round balls .411
Each ball is cast by hand and 100% checked for quality!
Pack of 100 lead round balls for rifles and/or handguns in .411 caliber
Diameter (approx.): 10.45mm
If the ball is used for a revolver, the size of the ball should be approx. 0.1 mm larger than the barrel bore!
Of course, no plaster patch is required for this!
This ensures that the chambers are sealed from one another and that no double ignition can occur.
Of course, smearing the bore with grease is also required!
This ball was rolled in a drum and then treated with wax and graphite. This means that it no longer has any casting slugs.
From now on I will roll (drum) lead balls and treat them with wax and graphite.
You can clearly see that the casting slugs and any casting burrs have almost completely disappeared.
The advantage of casting is that there are no voids in the ball because the air can still escape from the top of the mold. When pressing, there can be voids in the lead, which result in very different weights of the balls and therefore different hit positions. These pressed balls do not have a casting slug.
With this method I now combine the advantages of casting with those of pressing. Uniform ball weights and NO cast slugs.
Tania Heber (German champion, European champion, world champion in the various muzzle-loading disciplines) would also only use the rolled balls!
