From what I read from the nice folks (Felix) at LASC the Nickel Babbitt can be good bullet material. With a few warnings and things to pay attention to. http://www.lasc.us/FelixBabbitbulletAlloy.htm
So I'm pretty sure I paid $3 for about 4# of 88% tin 7% antimony and 3-4% copper. Anyone with some experience casting with this alloy feel free to weigh in. You know sometimes I feel bad melting down pieces of history, even if melting is what it was made for. Company has not had that name in almost 50 years.
The three rounded "pills" with a slot are something of a mystery, very hard and ring like a bell when struck, wonder if anyone has a guess on what those might be.
Not pictured is a homemade ingot in the shape of a ladle with unmelted pieces that look like little Hershey kisses. And about 5# of shot in an old canvas bag labeled hard 7 1/2. I'm figuring 5-7% antimony for that.
As a side note it's getting closer to the time when the weather will allow me to go outside and melt stuff. Can hardly wait.
