I ordered some to make paint grenades with.The problem is they are to light.Yes I did fire them out of my cannon.,they went all over the place.I stick to .44 cal. lead balls now.Even cheaper since I make them.

Their site doesn't say anything about where the do and don't ship...
So, I would assume you could order them. I wonder, would hdpe work better than polystyrene because its heavier?

Possible, but plastic is still alot lighter than glass or lead.You need that weight to keep a true path or slow it down.

Yea, good point, but I did fire a dense plastic ball with my bottle rocket powered gun, (oh sorry solid fuel), which has a fairly high velocity, and it flew pretty straight.

Plus, they're all pretty small but they could definately work as a substitute for people making airsoft type guns. Cool find Spud
