Be carefull though, they dont fly very straight, sometimes the bounce off the target and come back.

you could try to attach some small pieces off rope on the back, they will stabilise the flight. You can also make paper cones and put the nails in it, that works perfectly too.

Actually if you have some access to clay you could design a mold and find something to fill it with to create perfect sized projectiles easily. I would think that if you can get some lead would be easy because of a low melting point but also candle wax would be fun and both are reusable as long as you can find it.
