I got my start with 70lbs of dive belt lead. Crummy for muzzle loader balls I learned the hard way and just fine for 9mm tumble coated I found.
When I learned about soft pure lead for ML, I dedicated a new pot to pure lead and used the dive weight lead and wheel weight lead in another. Eventually got a Lee hardness tester and dropped lead into muffin tin cups and marked the hardness after testing. Variation was everywhere from 10-15. Once I marked them I could regulate things better blending to match getting close to 12-13.
I thought for sure this post would be fodder for the 3%'ers, guess they were all busy this weekend..
Oh well, back to the Vax and Ashli threads...
