A buddy of mine grew up using Wrist Rockets and...
got pretty good. His favorite projectile is a 5/16" hex nut. He says the 1/4" is too light and the 3/8" too heavy. The hardware store sells 'em by the pound...no need for Grade 8 or stainless or anything fancy.
Lots of trains come by here and there's taconite pellets waiting to be picked up by the tons likely. They are a bit irregular but I expect they'd work fairly well.
