Co worker is a diehard skeet shooter. Makes his own shot. He sorts out all the garbage and stickies. He gave me a full 5 gal. bucket of stickies and a 2/3 full bucket of what he was told was Babbitt. It melts but this stuff is HARD!! Haven made any ingots yet going to get a piece tested at work to see what I have.

Great score! So, did you buy the guy a nice steak lunch?

Well got my Mistery/Babbit Lead Tested and was very very pleased with the results. Check out the readout on the test paper. That should hopefully make some good boolits if I add a little pure to it. Got a whole cast iron dutch oven full.
