How close of a "SWAG" on an alloy's content {SB,SN,PB} can be made from knowing the BHN ??

I have a "cheat sheet" put together over the years from various sources. One example would be:
1-14 Tin-lead 11.2 BHN
6-94 Ant-lead 11.2 BHN
Range scrap 11 BHN

The first two came from Handloader *183 and the latter was from use of the LBT tester. Guess you could always try an alloy calculator and see. Dusty
