Bar solder

[GSCSA]

His the local scrap year today and come back with a 53lb lead ingot, 56lbs of new WWs and seven bars of solder. Most of them say National Lead Co, but two say Western Electric Co. Any idea what I have here? Got it all for 60 bucks.

I posted earlier, but have no idea where it ended up. Look at this.

By the way, nice score.

Kind of what I was thinking, but wasn't sure. Thanks!

You stole lead and solder?

The guy that runs the place is a fellow caster which helps a bunch. I think he only does .45acp. He calculated everything out (the 53lb ingot was calculated at a different price) and it came to 66 bucks. He said. "I'll just round it off at 60 bucks." He even calculated the solder bars at the WW price which is about 39cents/lb. I'm up to about 300lbs of ingots and plan on going back about once a month till I hit 600lbs.
