Pistelle 68 question

Pistelle 68 question

Can the pistelle handle the 68 caliber slugs (the molds are sold online) safely?

What is the most recommended mold for making projectiles at home?

Planning to add the z ram tuning chamber to increase the power. The .682 barrel makes it too long to conceal carry.

No. It doesnt take shaped projectiles, only spheres. You'd have to look at a Umarex HDR/HDS (or similar) if your heart is set on shaped ammo....but they also arent nearly as powerful in concealable setups.

That being said, heavier .68 ammo like 10g PVC coated steel balls works just fine for most needs regarding the Pistelle.
