coroded shot

Hi Folks, have 1/2 bag of #6's that have turned gray w/obviously PBO2, how do I remove this and after do I just swirl it in powdered graphite?-Thanks Much-Muddy

I had some air gun pellets do this. I just tumbled them in a rotary tumbler with a little graphite and they worked fine and looked like new. Thanks

Don't be breathing it when you pour or stir it!

Heed what Hogtamer posted. That white coating is very very bad for you. DO NOT breath the dust.

There is really no need to remove it. Just use caution in loading it and stuff it in hulls. I used by a half dozen bags of #8 shot with the same issue.

I ran into this a few weeks ago, i cant copy/paste on this tablet but do a search for removing oxidation from lead shot. Mine cleaned up very well i thought.
