bwhahahahahahaaaaa...I was gonna say something but instead...
If you have ROUND balls, you gotta twist them SLOW. 1 turn in 78 should be okay for little ones like these.
If you like to twist your balls FAST it's a lot easier with longer ones. Minnie is great at this.
BESS likes 'em a LOT bigger and round and smooth but then she doesn't twist them at all.
Gawd! What kinda pre-verts are we, anyway??????

I've said before here, .54 cal stuff is getting harder to find locally. Seems .50 is the more popular. Track is by far the best place to find anything you would need for any BP items. Best thing is get a mold from Lee and cast your own. I don't suppose lead is cheap to ship.
you can buy them online from track of the wolf, or you could just buy a ball mold from them too and make your own from old wheel weights, lead shot or lead scrap from a junk yard/salvage yard.
Thanks, I'll check them out Tuesday.
Yesterday I picked up 25lbs of pure lead as well as a Lee electric metal melting pot. Now all that's needed is a mold, actually two of them, a .54cal and a .50cal for my newly purchased Mowrey. I'll post a new thread on that one.
Cheers
track of the wolf sells the molds for under $20 each made by lee. here's a link:

you'll need the .530 and .490 caliber ones for those particular guns.
Where did you find the lead BTW.
