I’ve heard that lead for ammo comes mainly from secondary smelters, recycled batterys and such. I’m sure someone on here has more info on that
That would be correct. MGD is a lead guy.
Battery alloy has changed. Not so much lead in them.
Wheel weights now have a lot of zinc. Ruins your lead mix for casting. At least they are marked; “Zn”, I think.
Browsing Home Depot today (in CA). All solder I could find was ‘lead free’.
Lead for casting is still on the web. They ship it in the USPS flat rate boxes (ha ha).
Lead is EVIL, just one of many attack points on the citizen.
