300 Lbs of lead this spring cost me around $250 and would make

18,260 115gr 9mm

or

9,130 230gr 45ACP

or

12,500 168gr 308

I can put the word out to my contact at the scrap yard if you want to start putting some away.

I cant think of the last time I did any large scale production, but I always like to tuck a little lead away when it becomes available to me at the right price.

priceless, have you ever used one of the punches to make gas checks out of aluminum cans or other common household items?
