    Another lead question

    Tried searching for this, didn't find anything.

    I have noticed that lead shot is coming down in price.

    At $30 for 25 lb, it is still expensive. But that is cheaper than some of what is selling on ebay.

    So does shot make good boolits?

    In a word. No. But chilled shot is a good source for arsenic which helps if you heat treat bullets.
