Ive been using zlt shot for ages and all seem uniform in size,only bought dinsmores as shop had no zlt left. Have I just got a bad batch?

Good quality lead shot is hard to find at present. The best I have found is apache lead shot on ebay. It is 100% lead and bang on in size and cut. Too much alloy being used currently in most brands. When You find a batch buy bulk !!!

The zlt's at my local shop are too hard, had good in the past though to be fair. I think apache have sold out but it will be worth a email to them to see when they are getting any more. These seem to be 100% lead to me and like I said good uniform size and good cut. I bought the 8,9,10 and 11's and they are the best I have used for years, mainly for wag, stick and bolo. No probs moving shot around, no dropping off or sliding after a bit of landing net abuse !! I luv em
