It's hard to say what would happen. Since it's so new to us. I know the sprue doesn't seem to affect flight of the ball. I guess the old lead ball is just going to fly straight no matter what we do with it.
Some guys pound the crap out of them when loading and still shoot a good target. Others are real delicate loading and can't shoot for beans.
Bottom line........learn to shoot and don't worry about the ball.
