I found this on Ebay tonight. Might be useful for someone. Looks like he has 1 1/4 inch steel balls @ $96.00 shipped for a quantity of 62.
He has other sizes as well.
Edited to say that I know shooting steel balls is not a good idea for several reasons.

If for whatever reason one gets stuck inside the bore it may be more difficult to remove than something soft like lead. Also, I would think it wound tend to bounce more when hitting certain surfaces.
I just noticed the link is gone. I guess I did a no-no.

I agree on the safety aspect. I don't think we're allowed to link to current auctions here, so that's probably why it was removed.
