So I have a 6 week wait for my first slingshot to arrive so shall continue to delve into theory whilst I'm waiting.
I want to hear peoples ideas regarding types of spherical ammunition. I know slingshots can essentially fire anything and some people use stones, darts, arrows and many other things but I'm only concerned with spherical (i.e. ball shaped) projectiles.
I know steel balls/ball bearings are one of the most common types of ammo but keeping with the spherical parameters what other options are there? I would also like to hear peoples views on 'environmentally friendly' ammo. I've heard of people using hardened clay balls because they break down and return to the earth. Which I quite like. When I first start I'll be shooting somewhere remote away from the risk of potentially hurting anyone and I want to try not to litter the wilderness with bits of metal.
