    I think it's some kind of auto body solder, but I don't know the exact alloy. probably anywhere between 40% and 60%

    If it were me, I would just call it 50/50 and figure close enough.

    most bars of 50-50 solder are marked on the ends 50/50 like that i would say 35% tin and treat it as such.
    it's all an educated guess,,,, till the trigger is pulled.

    the more i find out about shootin boolits, the more it contradicts everything i ever learned about shooting jaxketed.
