Try finding 000 buckshot shells at your local Wally world or rocksalt loads for killing pigeons in your barn with out blowing holes through the walls. For custom loads loading is the only way to go. Nothing says you have to load with lead shot I use spent primers, smashed 22 hulls, layered loads with 000 buck and bbs, copper wire, rock salt and oh yea I just started 2 1/2 inch low pressuer 12 gage for a marlin model 19.
