This is from the group buy 314-120. Anyone care to guess how many are in there? The jar is 12 inches tall.

No one has even guessed half of it. It is slightly over 80 pounds. I know .... I gave it away if someone can do math. By the way ..... I made a whole lot more than the one jar. It has been a long cold winter .... what can I say? Maybe I will post a pic of all the boolits I cast over the winter.

I figure I poured about 10,000 boolits this winter. Mostly 30 cal, second 45 cal (ACP and Long Colt), 44 cal by weight and some 22s. I just bought a dillon and loaded 1200 45 acps for this summer bullseye matches. I have one large (3 lb) coffee can of 452460 left that need to be sized and lubed. No hurry, my brass is all full. I just bought a 38, so I am back to casting again.

I am a true addict.
Its all you guys fault!

Thanks Dale and the others that posted their estimates. By weight and doing the math it comes out to about 4900 bullets. Now this was figured with the bathroom scale that my wife swears is accurate. But she says that sometimes it weighs a little heavy. Maybe it is only 4800 bullets. I'll try to keep an accurate primer count when I load them.
