I've picked up a near life time supply off evilbay in the last few years. Seems people don't understand what it's good for. A little bit goes a long way. And as stated before I keep linotype around for this.If you're going to be mixing a big batch a hardness tool might come in handy. It will help you get a decent mix. I wouldn't want to mix to much linotype or alloy in, it's not usually the cheapest ingredient. So you can check your hardness and come up with the most economical recipe. For small batches it's not usually that big a deal as for cost. But like anything else in reloading/casting we want to stretch our dollars as far as we can.</blockquote>
