First time I've run across it. $.80 a pound at the local scrap yard. Got 17# of it. Don't get any better than this.

Finally got around to smelting the came down into ingots. Melts at a much lower temp than pure lead, no doubt due to the solder connecting the pieces of came together. Looks like I will need to add a little less tin to this when casting my hollowpoints.

ants,
All my hollowpoint molds were made by Mihec in Slovenia. My latest one (hollow base, not hollowpoint) casts .38 caliber 148gr HBWC's. Got a bunch of wadcutter .38 Special brass that they will be going in.

Is there a Possibility, a feller can get a Hollow Point mold made? O/I have 9mm/357 and .451, would like to find one in .308, around 170-190gr. Any help would be appreciated.

Sure. A couple of ways to approach this. If you already have a mold that you want to have made into a hollowpoint mold, then contact Erik at http://www.hollowpointmold.com/. Else, you can go to
http://castboolits.gunloads.com/ and see if such a mold is available or if one of the several manufacturers there would be interested in producing it. Hope that helps.
