Look for Linotype, it makes brilliant bullets. Check with newspaper printers and ask them how they dispose of their waste, you
won't regret it. The bullets will typically cast about 8% lighter than pure lead. They can be used to 1800FPS without gas checks
and not cause barrel leading. If I remember correctly, lead is around 9 or 10 on the Brinnel scale and Linotype is about 28/29,
which is considerably harder. Linotype bullets are much better penetrators and do not deflect off window glass like lead bullets
do. Don't ask how I know that.

And if you cast wheelweight bullets and dump them directly into a 5
gallon bucket filled with water,

I take it, you do this hot, as in right out of the mold?

Ayup. Knock, flip, Splish!!


then size and lube them within a day or
so..within the next 7-10 days..they will harden up to around Bn 30 and
stay that way for up to 4 yrs..after which they will slowly soften back
down to 13-15

It's eight fifty eight. Close enough!

The current Democratic party has lost its ideological basis for
existence.
- It is NOT fiscally responsible.
- It is NOT ethically honorable.
- It has started wars based on lies.
- It does not support the well-being of americans - only billionaires.
- It has suppresed constitutional guaranteed liberties.
- It has foisted a liar as president upon America.
- It has violated US national sovereignty in trade treaties.
- It has refused to enforce the national borders.

....It no longer has valid reasons to exist.
