3,186 lbs of lead

[Geezer in NH]

All that bother and at $.04 above lead price? I would not pay 1/2 of what he is asking transportation and hours of work to get ready to pour boolits ,Naa make that 30% of asking price. Bet he has it a long time.

According to my calculations, that is enough lead to make 22,302,158 158 grain boolits for my 38/357 rifle and pistols (not accounting for fluxing loss and stray dribbles). Hmmmmm . . . . that's enough to keep a fellow busy for a few weeks. Wonder who has that many primers in stock?

Your calculator will work better when you move back to Michigan...lol

GONRA's glad that hjohnson brought this up:
" The vapour pressure of Lead(Pb) is actually very high. "

>>> ALWAYS cast boolits OUTDOORS! <<<

Vapour Pressure pretty well explains some of the stuff
you see in Explosive Material Tables .

HAVING this knowledge:
"lead azide"(PbN3) is a nice example:
"when it goes BANG assume all the Pb (LEAD) is in the vapour phase!"

MATH verked out great for ME waaay back in my
[basement / back porch] primer lab days....

(Yeah - WHO CARES (I DO!)
