Gunsmith finds!

[Mr. 16 gauge]

According to the Lyman Cast Bullet Handbook, my wheelweights and tin mix dropped into a bucket of water are harder than linotype. I have some linotype on establishment, but find OLD wheelweights, tin and a water quench renders up a nice cast bullet for rifles and pistols.

Adam;
Would you mind telling us where you find your scrap tin? I have searched high and low and have been unable to find a source of scrap tin for bullet material. I use wheel weights and bar solder, but the price of bar solder has made it impractical to use as a source of tin for bullets and wheel weights are getting scarce as well.
For the record, I plan on using the linotype to mix with my assortment of wheel weights and scrap lead to make something akin to a "No. 2 mix" described in the Lyman handbook.
