    Question What's the going rate for dead soft?

    Howdy all,

    Supposed to be getting the 23.5# cubes that are 5BHN from the new supplier, What's it worth on the wire by the pound?

    Thanks,

    Sam

    A buck a pound is a good place to start, IMO.

    The chart at the top of the page, while interesting, has no real relevance to what the value of lead is in the quantities we use.

    Isotope containers

    Sam's chunk looks like a "Grey cube".

    Sam comes by a lot of Radiology Isotope Containers.

    The lead prices at the top of the page is the spot price for buying Tons of lead not pounds.
