I do not know of any ammo makers that still load ANY round ball shotgun loads. However, there ARE 28 gauge slugs (Brenneke makes them) that are available. An internet search using the term "28 gauge slug ammo" will show several companies that carry them. They are about $11/ 5 shells plus shipping cost, so they are not cheap.

Where does shotgun gauge come from?
Think of a lead ball which is the diameter of the inside of the barrel of the shotgun. The gauge of the shotgun is the number of balls that size to make up one pound. 12 balls - 12 gauge 20 balls - 20 gauge 28 balls - 28 gauge Exception - .410 bore is the actual bore diameter
What are shotgun gauge sizes related to in inches?
Shotgun gauges are determined by the number of lead balls of a given diameter required to make one pound of that size ball. Thus 10 balls of 10 gauge diameter are required to make one pound of such balls, or 20 balls of 20 gauge diameter are required to make one pound, and so forth. This is the traditional, and very old, system. The actual (nominal) bore diameters of the various gauges are as follows: 10 gauge = .775 inch, 12 gauge = .729 inch, 16 gauge = .662 inch, 20 gauge = .615 inch, 28 gauge = .550 inch. The .410 is named for its nominal bore size, and is not a gauge at all.

What is the difference between a 12 guage shotgun and a 20 guage?
A 12 gauge shotgun is determined by the fact that 12 solid balls of lead will fit into the bore of the gun and thus these 12 solid balls of lead will equal a pound. Likewise, it takes 20 solid balls of lead fitting into the barrel of a 20 gauge shotgun to equal a pound. 10 solid balls of lead that equal a pound fitting in the bore of a shotgun would make that a 10 gauge, like wise a 16 gauge and a 28 gauge. There have been 8 gauge guns but an exception to all this is the 410 which is not a gauge but a caliber. The caliber of a 410 shotgun is .410 or there a bouts. Some research on your part will help you understand more if your desire but you can see that smaller balls make gauges with larger numbers and therefore, a larger number gauge like 20 will shoot shells that are smaller in diameter than those shot in a 12 gauge.
