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.

normally auto body solder is 30/70..

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.

Going on an archaeology dig again, dragging up the bones of an old thread.

Bought a bunch of reloading/casting stuff today, with it came a several bars marked Waraloy 35x, in the almost 10 years since this threaded started, does anyone have anymore info?

Auto body lead could be ordered with different percentage of tin/lead depending on how skilled the technicians who applied it were. Just like with boolets. the more tin the better the flow out. Let’s not forget tin cost more than lead. 50/50 or 60/40 was common. And you always picked up your filings and remelted them.
