[QUOTE="Fyrtwuck, post: 1535554, member: 23"] Zinc takes a higher temperature to melt than lead. I've had some zinc weights mixed in with my lead ones and they just floated to the top and I just scraped them off and threw them away. If you're going to make 45's for your Springfield, I'd suggest getting a 230 grain round nose mold. If you want to try some of the 200 grain semi-wadcutters and see how they work, I have some here at the house. [/QUOTE]
