Range Scrap Experiences

[Winger Ed.]

We don't have many reloaders at our range, much less casters.
The range master lets me grab whatever I want as long as no one else is waiting to shoot.

We have a row of plates on the pistol range, and there is always a layer of 'splats' right on the surface under them.

Local scrap yard was paying .52/per pound this week for range lead.

I recently bought 120+ lbs. of range scrap already melted into 40 lb. blocks. I will over the next holiday weekend melt it down into 2 lb. ingots. I intend to melt the individual 40+ blocks into ingots and then combine ingots from each block into a "common" alloy.
I paid a buck a pound for it. You have to keep an eye out for it.

I recently joined a shooting club that I belonged to many, many years ago. I do intend to mine the berms, both outdoor pistol, practice, high power rifle, practice and shotgun ranges.
