Fortunately I have a virtual cornicopia of the lead pipe, unfortunately I have to explain to my wife why I have to buy alloy.. While its not an exact science I'm sure I'd rather play with hardness then brush lead out of my barrel for hours on end.  If it's 10-1 then I'll just order 10 lbs of linotype from ebay and then just mix as necessary, I'm assuming I'll still need tin too, but I would think linotype would be a good start even without the tin.. since tin is mainly used to help the bullets form more uniformly in the mold... This is all very interesting stuff to me, sounds like a good hobby to pick up for the next while as itll let me shoot more (notice I said shoot more and not shoot less expensively)...It also keeps me away from the stupid box..</p></blockquote><p></p>
