[QUOTE="ok-22shooter, post: 4328435, member: 42477"] It has taken a little while to get my lead analysis back from BNE on CastBoolits. Not what you would want to cast from but pretty close to some of the Linotype alloys. Sample #1 Lead POVE Pb = 84.3% Sb = 12.1% Sn = 3.6% I only tried one test of adding to pure lead, maybe a pound of the sample to 6# or 8# and at 750 deg F or so had oatmeal. I was sure it was Zinc but none in the analysis. out of town this week so it will be next weekend or week b4 I can try it again. over 2,000# of the above would mean I would probably need 500# of pure to reduce the Sb content. Any one have any guess as to why the oatmeal. will also be asking on CB. Mike [/QUOTE]
