I have quite a bit of WW ingots, which I'm guessing is .5% tin, 95% lead, and 4.5% antimony.
I have quite a bit of ingots made from lead pipe and protective x-ray sheeting that I'm guessing is close to pure lead. These ingots are substantially softer than the WW ingots and also a duller color.
Any tin added to the mix would have to be purchased, which i want to keep at an absolute minimum.
At this time, I'm only loading for 9mm plinking so velocity will be below 1000 fps. What mix ratio would you recommend w/ the materials that I have?
