I also have never seen or heard of flats having any type of wire in them...Maybe when they first came out many, many years ago that that is how they were made..
Yes, reg. banks are more common, but I believe that in the past couple of years that most if not all of the SPONSOR shops on this site carry them . I don't know for sure cause they don't deal with me...The local shops know what you guys want and stock that item..Your big box stores just don't give a shit..
Yes most reg. banks will flatten a little, probably enough to serve your purpose, but as the size gets bigger, they get harder to flatten..
Do yourself and the SPONSOR shops on here a favor and stop in and buy a few to try, they need all the help we can give them.
And finally, yes I like flats better..

16 oz of lead bank sinker loses everytime to my 5 pound sledge hammer. LMAO
