Hello all
I have a question for those better than myself here. I have stumbled upon a small quantity of pure antimony and i know that is what is used to harden, water-quench bullets. I tried to make a batch of hardball equivalent lead alloy (2%tin, 6%antimony, and 92% lead) and I was unable to get the antimony to melt and flux/mix in.
What am I doing wrong and if nothing, then what can I do differently? I am using a Lee 20lb bottom pour pot and I let the alloy '"cook" for over an hour at the hottest setting.
Help me please
Adam
