I have approx 10 pounds of lead cores(?) that are .570 X .192 weighing avg 46 grains. I think they might be bullet cores for swaging but not sure. Thumb nail test shows a little harder than pure lead. Thought if they were cores I would trade them for ?. I could mail a few for inspection if anyone is interested. Otherwise I'll melt and alloy out for 9 MM. Any interest?

Which number is the diameter? Kind of hard to fit a .570 into a .243 jacket!

They're for .22 cal "J" bullets. 0.192" diameter x 0.570" long.

Bull Shoals,

They should be .22 cores as Red River Rick suggests. I would be willing to trade an equal weight of cast boolits of your choice for them.

Deltaenterprises,

>570= length
