    Default Any demand for #12 steel shot?

    I can get a bunch of #12 steel shot, new and clean, not rusty. Is there any value to it for shotgun reloading? I would probably offer it here for $1 per pound, discounts for more. I'm just not sure if it is worth my time since it is such a small shot size, not what folks normally reload.

    Number 12 is usually reserved for rimfire shot shells and sometimes shot capsules for revolvers.

    I would find steel #12 worthless.

    Now it's real use would be for cleaning metal in a shot peening tank. Contact a local engine rebuilder and they may want it.

    Or build your own shot peen tank for serious rust removal.
