I don't think casting your own shot is practical ....and I think the lead you can buy, has a really low antimony level in it....so it would be way softer than most anything you could buy....

Qty's....even a 3/4 oz load of 8's has about 307 pellets in it..../ so coming up with a mold or a way to cast 307 pellets of #8 shot would be an awful lot of work ....in my mind.

Casting your own "OO" buck for practice might be an option..../ you can cast your own slugs...

But using "reclaimed shot" would be way smarter in my view...than casting your own...
