I have soft lead ingots (80#bars) that I have broken down to a usable size. This lead is very soft. What ratio of this lead should I use with bars of linotype. I will be casting for 41 mag, 44 mag and 45lc. Thanks!

I have several 60# soft lead ingots. I was wondering what amount of linotype lead should I add to cast 45lc bullets. I was thinking about a 50/50 mix but not sure. I do not have a way to check the hardness of bullets. Thanks for any help.

I like going to the local flea market on Sundays. Today there was a guy that buys storage lockers selling his items. Just as I got to his table he dumps out a small bag of various magazines. I picked out 4 mini 14 mags, 3 ruger mk3 mags, 1 high power mag, and 2 ppk/s mags. He said 24 dollars...

I was at my mom's house today cleaning around getting ready for Thanks Giving. After a couple of hours, I went into the garage to clean my reloading bench. My stuff is all about 30 years old and I haven't done reloading in 20 years (since I got married). I found a doubled bag of bullets marked...

I was in a local gun shop picking up some supplies today. A guy came into the shop to pick up his new stripped AR lower. I was completly surprised when the shop owner put a cable lock on it because the guy didn't own a gun safe. I know the lower is considered "the firearm", but this is stupid...
