Hi Guys,
I know you'll think, I am nuts, for asking this question, but here is is anyhow,
And I have been reading thru this section, on pg 40 now, and have not found the answers yet,
I have about 200+ #'s of lead, 95%+ is coww's, and various odds/ends etc.
I need to know best/easiest way to make pure lead from the WW's,
as I am about to start casting pellets, using this mold, http://noebulletmolds.com/NV/product...oducts_id=5431,
for my 22 cal PCP air rifles etc.
I have casts lots CF R/P bullets for yrs, 22 cal thru 45 cal, (it's been 20+ yrs) since the last time,
using a small pot on a 2 burner stove converted to propane, which is the shop some where, LoL.
I also have a very OLD electric Lee pot, not sure the weight, 10#?.
If IRR, when I made pure lead for the zink based washer Protect-a-bore? bullets,
for my 357/44's, I got the lead hot as possible,
and kept skimming (without fluxing) of until I got the Blue/yellows colors showing on top?
It's been long time, from the early 60's doing this, so I may be wrong........Lol.
I also have a complete shop with lathe and mill, metal power saw, welder etc.
I was just given a small propane cylinder that is about 8+" diameter x 12"+ tall,
was thinking of making a melting pot, from it etc.
Your thoughts or suggestions...on making pure lead from ww?
It would be greatly appreciated.
Tia,
Don
