Have fired several Hornady .315 loads through my Uberti 1849 Colt Pocket, but they're too small. Anyone have a size recommendation and source for round balls? How about molds? Thanks.

Go to one of the mail order houses (Cabela's) and order a five pound bag of buckshot. I THINK O buck is what you want (.320 diameter) but I am writing this without my references so double check me on that. Molding round balls is not my cup of tee so I personally would go the buckshot route.
