I just went and emptied the bullet traps at my local range... I didn't know what I was in for.
I brought a five gallon bucket thinking I might be able to fill it a quarter to MAYBE a half way full... Long story short, I had to finally stop when I reached the brim of the bucket
The lead pieces and lead dust have filled the entire bucket in, there are no air gaps...
So now some math...
A five gallon bucket contains 1,155 Cubic Inches,
1,155 cubic inches of pure lead weighs 473lbs
This is not pure lead however, it is range scrap and wheel weight alloy, so I am imagining the weight will be slightly less...
Any idea how much weight I might be working with here?? The damn thing literally took me four tries to lift into my trunk, and I'm not exactly a weak person...
Tomorrow I'm heading back to grab about another 100lbs!
