Well men I am all out of W/W metal, but I have lead and lino.
What do you think I should mix for the 45 CAP ??
I will be using 4.7 to 4.9 of Tite group powder. Target load so the Vela. will be under 900 f. p. s . I was thinking 5%. Is this to little??

Thank you

gray wolf,
A ratio of 3 1/2 lbs lead to 1 lb of Lino will approximate w.w. alloy.

Have fun.

but unless you are pushing the speed, you may get away with pure lead or even less lino.

For 45 ACP I am using 25% lino 75% lead
Tin 1%
Antimony 3%
Lead 96%

Close enough to WW, no leading at all, LLA.

Bullseye 4.1 gr.
