Lead shot (fishing sinkers work well) with a sabot is a personal favorite.

1" steel ball bearings seem like a natural. Very dangerous though. I think illegal in some parts of the World.

How could you ban ball-bearings? You could stop them from being sold individually I suppose, but they're such a crucial part of practically anything with moving parts that they would be impossible to control.
