Hey Guys & Gals, just wanted to drop a line and introduce myself. I have been lurking for a bit and soaking up a ton of info. I started reloading a couple months ago and have started collecting stuff to begin casting. I have a couple molds on the way and have started collecting some lead. I am going to start out by casting for my 30/06 (NEF Break Action) and 300 aac (AR build). Eventually I will work my way into 7.62x39, 45-70, 40s&w, 9mm, and possibly 223. Found a gentlemen on the forum here that is local who offered to show me the ropes once things settle down a bit. I've spent the past few days sorting and melting down some wheel weights. I'm hoping to end up with a little over 100lbs of lead once I get it all melted down. I figure that's not too bad for $20 paid out to a local tire shop. Pics below of the progress so far. Have about 54lbs in ingot form and have those 2 buckets to melt down still.
