I have a friend that gave me a 5 gallon bucket of some kind of alloy. I don't know if it's straight type metal or linotype. Can anyone ID it? How would I mix it with ww and old lead piping? I've been using straight ww's for about a year and lubing with Lee Liquid Alox, no problems with leading. I shoot mostly pistol and a few rifle cowboy action loads using Trailboss. I'm hoping these are will cast hard enough for some good loads for the 45/70. I've been using 50-53 grains of 3031 with a 300 grain JHP. I want to try a cast 405 at about 1800 fps. I'm told there is less meat damage than with the 300 jhp.
Sorry if the pics don't turn out. I'm not very puter literate.
