I use to cast a ton but now all I cam get is pure lead and too lazy to find tin... Anyone wanna trade or sell me some?

I casted mostly for 40, but also did 312, .225 and .32.

60/40 solder is a good source of tin (60%tin/40%lead).

I cast for 45-70, 45LC, .38/357 and .44 rould balls. I also cast pyramid fishing weights. When I first met my lady, she would go to serars auto center and other tire shops and ask for lead wheel weights, big jugs+no bra=very friendly guys. I have more than a ton of wheel weights. I also sored a ton of pure lead that was used as counterweights fo some laboratory hoods. Antimony is what I need to get ahold of.

Another good source for potentially cheap tin is in thrift store pewter plates and other pewter dinnerware.

I guess I should stand up and be counted as one who casts bullets. Will be casting some Sunday after noon showing another calgunner the process.


Thanks for the tip on Pewter I did not know that one.
