    Check my math folks, but it looks like using Eagle Rare as a source for 90 grains of tin - enough for maybe 4 or 5 really nice .45-70 bullets - works out to $0.36 a grain, or $2,520 a pound.

    Y'all know about the Rotometals link at the top of the forum, right? Unless you can hold it like Doc Holliday, it's probably a more efficient path.
    WWJMBD?

    In the Land of Oz, we cast with wheel weight and 2% Tin, Man.

    Well, even if you can't, it might be entertaining to try...

    ETA: WWJMBD? = what would John Moses Browning do? I think?
