VS-Range Lead Ingots for Sale

[TheCaptain]

Glad I stocked up before this lockdown. Take care of yourself! Put me on the list for another box or two when this mess is over! Gives you a lot of time to smelt, right? Or are you not aloud to do that?

Oh how I wish I had some lead to smelt !!!!! My club's range cleanout had been planned for May, but leagues/activities have been temporarily suspended due to governmental order of not having social activities of more than 5 people. We are living in interesting times! Please contact me via a PM sometime in May for an update as I am not maintaining a list of "future" buys. Thanks! ~ K

If anybody is concerned about bugs on the ingots put on a pair of gloves. I always wear them when handling lead anyway. Kathie, are you making a waiting list? If so put me on it. If not I will be watching.

Thank you. I am not keeping a waiting list - so stay tuned. And always feel free to send a PM. ~ K

Stay safe and let us know when your state loosens the shackles and when you are comfortable sending again. If you've got lead to smelt, I'd do a lot during the downtime... we're going to need a bunch of lead when this is over.

When you are able to resume sales I would be happy to take a box of lead. Thank you and stay well!

Unfortunately, no lead here to smelt! My club has suspended all activities and leagues due to not being able to have groups greater than 5 people. So I suspect the previously scheduled pickup for May will not happen. I suspect my state (CT) will still be in lock-down until end of April...It's anyone's guess as to when some of the restrictions will be lifted. Right now, social distancing (6 feet apart), appears to be slowing the spread - and main thing is staying safe! But when we do a clean out, I will welcome getting back to some sense of normalcy. Be well my friend, and be safe! Blessings! ~ K

Kudos on helping with the video messages. People need to feel connected to the body in difficult times.

We were a little slow on setting up streaming and went without message or fellowship for three weeks.

We finally got Facebook Live working well for us to live stream the message on Sunday. It certainly is not the same as in person but it helps us stay connected.

Great news is that we are in one of five counties moving into phase 2 of the startup. We hope to have in person worship by the first of June.

Hello friends,

Shooting activities have recently resumed at my club. Normally, I would have fetched more lead in May, but the COVID-19 health crisis put a crimp on this. Am waiting to hear from our House and Grounds chairman in regard as to when our club will be cleaning out the traps. At this time, I am very low on my supply of ingots (less than 200lbs). At this time, I am limiting sales to what I can fit into a small flat rate box. Once I fetch more lead, I then can resume to selling 50+lb of lead ingots.

Please stay safe.

With kind regards,

~ Kathie

Bump to keep thread alive.
Still waiting to hear from my club in regard to cleaning out the traps. Not sure when we will be doing this.

Stay safe everyone.

Hang in there Katie. Stay safe yourself.

What is the hardness of the range lead when compared to wheel weight lead? I load for rifle and pistol with cast rounds. If range lead is softer I guess I would just use it in pistols instead.

Hi, my range lead is on a par with that of wheel weight lead: approximately 12 - 14 BHN. Thank you for your inquiry. Stay safe. And sorry for the late reply. ~ K

Hi to all,

I have been responding to PM's with mostly the following information in the following paragraphs (by doing a copy and paste to save me from typing out for each message). I am also currently without a computer while mine is presently being worked on by my tech, so I am using my cell phone. When I do get more lead, I will post accordingly in my 2 threads. Below is the boilerplate! Be well and be safe! ~Kathie

I am almost out of lead ingots, and have been selling 24+ lbs to make the supply last longer to give more people opportunity to buy. I have most of it promised and I have suspended temporarily sales because one of my 5 terabyte harddrives suffered a catastrophic mechanical failure on Mon (8/10). My tech has the computer so I can't do my invoicing and labeling until I get it back. Price when I do resume is $1.05 a pound and $8.30 postage. Am using cellphone to monitor messages and responding to same.

Due to Covid, the scheduled May cleanout at my club never happened. Lately the club has experienced flooding inside, ventilation problems, and other disasters so I dare not ask the chairman of Buildings and Grounds about a clean out. With Covid, all leagues and other activities were suspended. So I suspect the traps don't yet need cleaning.

I don't know when we will do a cleanout.

If I had the lead, I would gladly sell some to you.

I wish I had an infinite amount of lead!

Thank you for your interest in my lead.

Stay safe.

* bump *
Most parts arrived for new computer to be built by my tech. Hopefully I will have things situated within a week or so....
Stay safe everyone.
