    Okie Score?

    Any of the Okies on here score a 370# clean lead haul out of Lindsay Oklahoma? It looked like a nice one! I talked to the guy and wanted to get it but couldn't swing it at this time!

    nope, if I had money, and knew about it, it woulda been mine! that's really all I need, is pure lead, I only have 20 lbs of it! I have plenty of alloys, but it's a mish-mash of buckets, until I get it all tested, especially my biggest batch, which is around .2%CU and I am guessing 2.5-3% of SB&SN

    If I had heard about it, I would have certainly taken a swing at it.

    No, it wasn't me....

    Just made a small haul of soft roof flashing. Got one more trip of about the same to pick up. A friend of mine is doing the drywall in a large house that is being completely redone. Even a new tile roof. Out with the old flashing and in with the new! He called me to see if I would pick it up so they did not have to pay to haul it away. What could I say, but I'll be right over!

    You are such a loyal friend to take all that dirty dangerous lead off his hands like that.
    Scrap.... because all the really pithy and emphatic four letter words were taken and we had to describe this source of casting material somehow so we added an "S" to what non casters and wives call what we collect.

    Kind of hard to claim to love America while one is hating half the Americans that disagree with you. One nation indivisible requires work.

    Wasn't me either

    Just curious, where did you find the offer for this lead?

    Several years ago, I bought 1000lbs of old WW from a member here, down in Duncan. He had cast it into about an 8" cast pan "puck(s)" (@ $1.00 / lb). Initially made the trip from Yukon & picked up 500lb. Then another trip the next weekend for another 500lb. He was financing a Saiga and I was happy to help him out.

    Not me either. Placed am add on craigslist. One offer was 45 pounds sheet lead.(bought), the other was 5 lead fishing weights, less than a pound. No deal.

    It didn't wind up in Idabel, that I'm aware of anyway.
