    Hey there. I have alot of hulls and a decent amount of cb100-12 wads and obviously cash also...How much would you want to just sell the lead for? And how much do you have/is it manageable? I am in citrus heights

          It thuds and is rather soft, cuts easy with cordless sawzall I'm fairly certain it's pure as its not from a swing keel but fixed and was a pre cast ballast instead poured so adding antimony for a stronger keel wouldnt be needed but don't have hardness tester but when I get the time I'll test it's density

                    Still got about 400 lbs, cast some .690 round balls last night, can scratch them with a #2 pencil and put a finger nail mark in them

                          You can take a piece to a local metal scrap yard, and they will shoot it for you. It will give you the % of lead, antimony, tin, crap, etc. that's in it. Listing that info will greatly increase your chances of selling the this, ESPECIALLY for $1/#.

                          If it's anything near a 95/5/5 or 97/2/1... they guys on castboolits will probably buy all of it. Lol
