Hi all, I just wanted to share what I did over the weekend. A few weeks ago a buddy of mine & I went to an indoor range at a club he is a member at and came home with 2 1/2 5gal buckets of range scrap. All of this is nothing but cast bullet scrap, they don't allow jacketed bullets to be used. The bullet trap is a sand pit so all we had to do was sift it through a screen. The bucket in the picture is the smallest of the 3. The weather was nice here yesterday so I did a little reprocessing, smelting as you call it. The 2nd picture is of the 44lbs of usable lead I got from it. Each ingot weights just a little under 2lbs. I just used a Coleman camp stove & an old 3 quart pot and it worked great. Now I just have to wait for another nice weekend and we'll process the other 2 and we should be good on castable lead for a while. Not too bad for a just a little digging.
Take care.
