Anyone have experience with buckshot like this?  It has a .65cal ball and six #1.  How accurate could that .65 cal be?

Looks like it would hurt!

If all that shot is in a shot cup, I would imagine the single large ball would be fairly accurate while the smaller shot balls would fly every which-way.

Heck yea!  I don't want to see what someone looks like after getting hit with that mess...

During the smooth bore musket era, that was called "Buck and Ball".  

See the link below for more information:

They have all kinds of exotic 12 Ga stuff here.

It ain't cheap but what is nowadays? Fun though.

I would tend to think that if the Buck were in the bottom of the shot cup and the ball in the top i.e. leaving the barrel first the ball should be fairly accurate and like Eric says the shot would likely spread too much to be effective. Might be better served by a slug...
