[sad2]no shoot. I could mail off some samples....they are in 30cal form of boolit
 
The Lee tester is $52.99 and is worth it if you are going to be smelting/casting more lead than what you have in hand in the future.
Have you shot any of the bullets?
Note that all commercial cast bullets are way harder than needed. 12-15 BHN and 50:50 lube has worked great for me in .30-30 and .30-06 for several decades.
