Home made shot

[tombogan03884]

reclaimed shot also patterns like shit.( made that mistake once... never again.)

when you think about it, if you could produce your own shot, you would save $2/ box.  which for some one that shoots several thousands of shot a year it would be worth it.  For me its not.  As it stands right now, I could buy 12 ga target loads for cheaper then I can reload them for,  that is not the case with 16 ga. 

This magazine is about BACKWOODS, do it yourself, survival , Mountain man kind of stuff. He also said he tried it at 10 yards, so this isn't a goose hunting load. While the article doesn't come right out and say so I think if this was at all usefull it would be for close range home defense type use.
