Silver at $30 a troy ounce, them be some pricey projectiles. A graphite

Don't forget to adjust the propellant for the heavier projectile.

Silver's lighter than lead, I'll do the math to match pressure and
velocity using the lighter slugs. I like your mold idea but I'll need
provisions for some lube I think. Silver's a lot harder than lead,
especially if I use Sterling, mayme I won't need lube...hmmmm.

How does the hardness compare with a copper jacket?
