Source for #12 lead shot
I've developed a number of shotshell loads for pistols/revolvers over the years. I use #9 and #12 shot depending on the application. I can still find #9 shot but I can't find any sources for #12.
Anyone have a source for either shot size?

I can't help with #12, but I get #9 from skeet shells.

Midway has #12 shot in stock at $42.99 for a 10 pound bag. I don't know what shipping costs. I imagine 10 pounds would go a long way if you're loading handgun shells.

At one time I think Hornady offered it in a 2# box, like buckshot

Midway looks like my best bet.
It's going to cost a ton of money no matter what.

I've gotten handfuls of 9's over the years from my skeet shooting friends. Ordering a bag of 12's will be expensive, but will probably last you for years.

#10's/#11's/#12's are available from Ballistic Products and Precision Reloading. Not Cheap. I like #12's in my bee loads. But have settled for 9's as they are cheaper and easier to get.

Nick:
Your mailbox is full. I can't give you shipping instructions.
M.O is on the way.

If you're an Amazon prime member you can buy shot with no shipping costs. They sell bags as small as 5 lbs.
