Where are you buying lead wire?

[ohnomrbillk]

I'm looking for some 0.185" and am striking out with my google fu.

Is there industry in most metro areas that carry it? Shipping could be expensive.

Check out AlFLoyd's die to continuously swage 0.185 lead wire. Just ordered mine. Here: http://castboolits.gunloads.com/showthread.php?153564-Swage-Dies-that-I-make-to-sell

What unit is condusive for shipping?

Is this on spools? Sticks? Precut cores?

If it works well with usps flat rate boxes, I'd be inclined to buy in full box quantities to keep shipping as low as possible.

Buy an extrusion die from chuckbuster or alfloyd, and make your own lead wire at will!

Well I just sent out 2 25lb spools in medium flat rate box and some sticks to another guy in a small. I however now only have a 40 lb spool that I can cut from that is 2% antimony (only willing to get rid of 20lbs) and 1 20 lb spool of either .5% antimony or pure (I do not really know what it is). It was ordered through Walt Berger but I have heard he used both back in his early bullet making days.

I tell you what. If you are looking to buy in bulk then I can cut them to sticks or spool depending on what one you want. If you just want something to sample then I can do that as well.

Is Afloyd hard to get a hold of?

We exchanged messages, I sent payment, and now I can't reach him.

I'm not in a hurry. Just wanted to make sure payment was received ok.

[Utah Shooter]

not that I know of. He seems to be punctual to me.

[rbt50]

I can make lead wire for anyone that needs it.

[alfloyd]

Core mold from BT, free cores for 223. You only need 7# or so from the berm or the college parking lot.

[ohnomrbillk]

No worries on the delayed reply.

Just wanted to be sure no one was waiting on me.

Looking forward to your products.

I have some .312 diameter wire available.
