You know, that stuff you shoot ot of the air-powwered machine guns at the carny while trying to mow down a line of innocent metal ducklings. Well, I scored two buckets of OLD wheelweights from a friend who inherited them from his dad. We loaded the first bucket (full to the top) into my Forester and then the second. OMG!! That 2nd bucket was WAY heavier than the first and was only 2/3 full! Yesterday I started smelting down my treasure and stared with the heavier bucket. After digging down about 3" what do I find? Shot pellets! The whole bottom of that bucket was filled with shot pellets, obviously fired judging by the deformation. I called my friend and inquired about that, he said "Oh yeah, I'd forgotten about that! Pops told me he had scored a bunch of that from the carny one year!"
So, does anyone have any idea what the composition might be? I'm assuming it's the cheapest lead shot that there ever was, maybe something like 98-2?
