If it was easy, anybody could do it.
If you're in to tinkering and pranks, copper plate a couple of dozen of your cast boolits for him. Then discover them and pass them on - as you shoot cast.
Many of us have come across these guys and there's no point wasting your time trying to convince them of anything. Last time for me was a couple of years ago. Long after my doubter had run out of ammunition, I was still shooting. I couldn't figure why, for the life of me, he just stood there and watched me shoot.
When we left, I just grinned as I walked past him. As we drove home my wife said his kid was giving him a hard time about so little ammunition and that he should ask to buy some of mine. As I do not sell ammunition he'd have likely just been more irked so it was a good he didn't ask. Not to mention all the egg on his face he'd have had.
Yeah. I've had guys tell me, you shoot wheel weights out of that? Don't you know how hard that stuff is?

Ummm BHN of copper vs. lead???

Dont talk him into it!!! it would deplete any lead supply you have!

The 30-30, 45/70 and soon 45acp have only had cast run though them.

I'm with Doc on this. The more factory your friend shoots, the more lead for us!

Had a friend tell me the crud from WW would ruin my barrel. Another said he shoots factory ammo so he knows what is in them. I asked what bullet and what charge. "I dunno." was his answer.
I like to teach people and am bothered when they are too stubborn. I like mtgun Bill's comment! lol

"THESE are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph."

Yup I say to these idiotic statements. I wouldn't want to try to educate these fools It's like wrestling with pigs.

I love guys like that, of course he doesn't offer a reason why it's not good. Tell him the barrel on his gun will last 25% longer shooting lead bullets. In a revolver, maybe 50% longer. A lead bullet does less damage to the forcing cone over time.

I only say that I have ammo and you don't. Can I have that brass?

I usually just walk down and get his/and my bullets back outta the berm and then thank him for 50 new free ones.
You all should see the looks I get at the public range when I drag out my .308 win that I built to shoot nothing but cast out of and a box of ammo with lead boolits. Then they really get a shock when I touch it off and it sounds like a regular load, because it is a 180 gr boolit running 2500 FPS.

Tyrants use the force of the people to chain and subjugate-that is, enyoke the people. They then plough with them as men do with oxen yoked. Thus the spirit of liberty and innovation is reduced by bayonets, and principles are struck dumb by cannon shot: Albert Pike, Morals and Dogma
Sounds perfect... You don't worry about sharing... You might mention that those old yellow casings are inferior to the pretty silver ones, too
