I have some wheel weight ingots and some flashing / soft ingots but plan to load hard cast for 10mm Auto and 44 mag. I'd cast projectiles for various purposes from what I have but for hard cast bullets from the higher power loads of the 10mm and the 44, I'd like to do it right. I won't be shooting a ton of these- just want to make a decent supply. I can make plinking loads from the wheel weight ingots.
Would there be a local and cheap source for lead + antimony & tin bearing lead in the Worcester area? Not sure if linotype can be found locally to add in for the harder brinell. If no, it would probably be cheaper for me to simply order. Hard cast bullet alloy via Roto Metals $25 for 5 lb delivered, MetalShipper $39 for 10 lbs delivered. Anyone use MetalShipper? Time plus fuel + wear and tear on the vehicle makes shipping more attractive if I can't find a local source.
Any related advice appreciated.
