Or a box ofshotgun shells (25 ea)A friend shoots trap and skeet, and just happened to have steel shot in sizes very close to what I needed. Problem is, if you don't have a friend, you probably have to buy a pound of shot to get the gram or so you need.
You'll need to know the size....I think that if you went into a gun shop and told them that you need 2 grams of shot they would probably give it to you. Or go to a range after a shoot and drag around a magnet.
