Was at a local open-air swap meet in Versailles, MO., came across these ingots. Marked 'Lead Free', Sn/Ag/Cu and a trademark(?) that I cant quite read. Any use for these? Perused the high copper thread, didn't really help. Thanks, gang.

Understand the tin and copper; the silver? What does that bring to the party? Seems a waste, unless you're hunting werewolves!

It is 95% tin, maybe 2.5% Ag and Cu. Jus4 another source of tin as far as I am concerned.
Make hollow point boolits with that alloy. Press garlic, into hollow…. Lube with bacon fat.
Should work for vampires, zombies and werewolves, and any other nasties…
Just because it’s a bad idea…
…. Doesn’t mean it won’t be a good time !
It’s lead free solder. The silver adds strength, improves wetting and helps prevent “tin whiskers” as the soldered joints age. When adding to lead, use it as pure tin in your calculations.

Oregon Trail has these in their bullets and they are pretty hard. Some people like them.
