Does anyone know if you can shoot 50 Caliber muzzleloader bullets in the 50 caliber Hatsan Pile Driver? It would give you a greater selection of precision bullets in weight to choose from!

I'd also like to know if any of the 50 caliber air guns are also able to shoot the rubber or nylon kinetic rounds.. one in particular I thought about was the Seneca shotgun as you could then shoot lead, shot, and the kinetic rounds..
also interested if any other guns are able to do this.. because I can't handle a lot of recoil, I just was thinking about them being a lightweight projectile and yet if needed you would have plenty of power to drop something in a emergency with lead..
guess I have been thinking more about airguns, especially since reduced noise.. but we've been having regular visits from a bear.. and I just hope someone is not feeding him because he left evidence of eating corn.. and our corn is long ago ate, except for what is currently being shucked off in front of our wood stove for cornmeal..
I don't ever want to have to shoot him, but I remember as a kid I told neighbors not to leave food out and then the bear decided that the refrigerator in the kitchen was better shopping
yes he's inside the 6' no climb fence and wondering if the gate is going to open and let him out..

Easy cheapest probably best route is casting yourself... Lee mold .515 450 grain 2 cavity with handles $25.00. Lead a dollar or so a pound. Lee .510 sizer kit also $25.00 or so...I have lots extra cast .510 slugs if you need any too...Lee casting equipment good and affordable..

Projectiles - Cast Lead Bullet .510" Sampler
Geared towards the Texan/Hammer/Piledriver .510 owners. I own the Hammer/Piledriver and many other big bores, and decided to make my own. Since no one I know makes a pellet/slug sampler anymore, I decided to compile samplers without breaking your bank. .358/.401/.456/.580 will be coming next...

To the best of my knowledge muzzleloader bullets are .495 diameter, but if you can find bullets for the black powder cartridge rifles they should be .512 diameter. I had a 50 90 sharps and have some bullets left in the 512 diameter.

The Piledriver is .510. All the Lee molds available need to be necked down to .510 with a sizer. There are no molds that are .510 native. That is what I offer since I own the piledriver .510 too.

I buy my molds for my .510 Texan usually in .512 and .513 and then size down to .510.. The Lee .515 mold will size down to .510...I made quite a few. Accuracy comes from being able to get just the right size slug for bore.. If slugs smaller diameter accurately suffers.. The molds I'm using were originally for black powder cartidges...
