WTB lead

Hey guys, thanks for the comebacks. I've been fishing almost constantly since posting this and hadn't checked back. I'll do a follow up as soon as I've slept for 2 days. Been averaging around 2 to 3 hrs a night. Sometimes none at all.... zzzzzzzzzzz

The guy says he has it in 25lb blocks for 85 cents a pound.  He's in Richmond and can meet you half way.

I would be interested in that guys name too, I have started casting my own bullets recently, I am paying $1.50-$2 a pound for clean lead, wheel weights don't have consistent densities and when you alloy them the flow rate (into the small molds) can really be affected, love to find a hundred or two hundred pounds to have waiting!

You should be able to get good flow by adding some tin.  Not sure what the prices are but I know rotometals has different alloys for bullet casting and they sell tin. You can ask but I think its like 2 pounds tin to a hundred pounds of lead.

Yup, that is correct! Rotometals has a lot of good stuff, unfortunately they are still in the $2/lb range. If I am going to pay $2, I have a guy in Sac who sells reclaimed firing range lead (at the right density and alloy) for about the same price, without shipping.
