3/8" ballbearings are sold as "slingshot ammo"

I agree with JSR - buy slingshot ammo/ball bearings instead... I used to have a lot of problems because of marbles - they aren't uniform so it was a real PITA to use them

Not to mention their sectional density being extremely poor...

You probably don't know how much they cost but 1 euro = 4 PLN
So they are actualy quite cheap

wow they've got lots of ammo in a wide range of calibres there are even some in .33 cal that would be ideal for my 9mm barrel

No amount of access to ammunition can compensate for being Polish, so I'm fine ;)

heh some of the sellers even claim they can make 'em in any calibre desired

if you're nice I might contact you with them - though I am not sure if they ship within EU

Even if they did it wouldn't help me, impossible to import anything ammunition shaped in epoxyland. Besides, I have a lathe and mill ;)
