    !st Smelting in the books!

    Well I finally got to do my 1st smelting of the lead I have collected today. While not alot compared to some of the gents on here, I was able to cast 15 1/2 pounds of WW ingots and 27 pounds of pure lead ingots That should be enough for me to start my casting for my 480 Ruger once I get some lube for my new mold. Now to get started collecting some more lead! Thanks to all the people who have helped me along in this process!!

    Mix it 50/50 & water drop them, should be great for the 480.
