Sounds like fun. I cast up 10 pounds of 462560. They weigh in at 504 grains, so 10 pounds isn't all that many. But I like 'em! :)

I wonder is BS, once dry, would make a good flux. Any opinions out there?

It's just grass and water, with some serious microbiological action.
I'm thinking pine shavings might smell better.

Not only that God Himself shoots a .45ACP, but that He knows pouring His own is the only way to go.

Verily.

A casting party is not as beneficial as a smelting party. I had one of those a couple months ago. We easily did over 1200 pounds.

A casting party can be a lot of fun.

The last Smelting party I had we cleaned 1350lbs of range lead and 400lbs of WW plus sorted 7 more buckets of WW. Was one long hot dirty Fun day!!!! As far as beneficial I think both have there place and time! The main thing is good friends gathering to do something to gather and have fun getting something done as a group! At the end of the day it the fun you had together that make life Better!!!!!!!!!!!!! Clint [smilie=l:
