:mrgreen: I have a compact tractor and needed some weight on the front so I went down to the scrap yard where I buy my lead. I figured use lead that way if I don't need them in the future make boolits out of em right? Well I'm there looking in the lead bin and I find almost 20 lb of jacketed bullets!

just think of the poor sap that sold them to the scrap yard. no doubt they were considered "dirty" as in mixed metals and probably got paid 8¢ to 10¢ a lb.
