I am starting to use up my stash, mainly because I shoot cast in my machine guns and use a fair amount.
I use a 5 lb ww to 1lb linotype mixture (supposedly it is the Lyman #2 alloy).
I can look down the road a few years and can see that some day I will run out of wheel weights and linotype. Probably later for linotype but it will get used up eventually too.
How can I figure out how to alloy different kinds of lead? I can get range scrap, pure, wheel weights, linotype, scrap yard deals, etc.
I want to get to the Lyman #2 which I have been using my whole life. So far, it has been easy. 5 lb ww : 1 lb lino.
I need to learn how to do this for the future.
Has there been a thread on this?
Any suggestions where to learn how to alloy the lead?
Thanks.
