Neighbor dog on my property harassing wildlife

But you will lie to them when confronted, that speaks volumes about you're character.

Sorry, someone that cant or wont control their animals does not deserve an explanation!!

Rubber buckshot is readily available as well as rubber bullets for the larger calibers. I have some for .45 acp. No powder just a primer and shove in the rubber bullet into the case by hand. works well. They are flat on the end. Not a lot of range as they fall to the ground pretty quickly (probably 20 yards maximum) but up close they will put an errant animal on the run. Of course they are single shot at the pistol won't cycle but that is usually all you ever need.

Here is some for .38/357 That should work well in revolver giving multiple shots.

I have plastic rounds like that for my 44 mag, just primer fired.. same thing basically.

Just looked at your link, bottom left pic in red

These would work well in a pump or single or double bbl shotgun. Likely wouldn't cycle in an autoloader.

yeah, years ago when the "fast draw" thing was a popular sport, a lot of guys made wax bullets by just taking primed cases and shoving them into a layer of paraffin melted into the bottom of a cake pan. The mouth of the cartridge case cutting into the paraffin and lodging the "bullet" all in one go. They probably would have a very short range, but it might be enough to sting out to 10 yards, maybe.

Rubber Bullets would be great, I could do that! What does it mean "to enlarge the flash hole to prevent primer set-back"?

Primer set back can occur because there is no powder charge to slam the primer back into the breechface. And the primer charge pressure can move the primer back a little unless the flash hole is enlarged a bit (think small drill bit run thru each case) to prevent the primer charge pressure from "setting back " the primer. In a revolver, this setback, if it occurs could "tie up" a revolver and prevent cylinder rotation. Be sure to mark these few cases you prepare this way. A lot of this depends on how tightly the primers seat into the primer seats. I used rubber bullets in a .45 acp autoloader and of course I didn't care about primer setback. But in a revolver, this may need to be done. Mark the case heads with a sharpie and don't mix these cases up with your regular cases with normal primer flashholes. Of course we are assuming you are a reloader to start with. Some may think these bullets are loaded ammunition which of course they are not. They are just rubber bullets to load into cases by reloaders. Of course the rubber buckshot loads I pointed to are complete loaded shells ready to go.

Thanks for the explanation, made perfect sense.
