Lead

I know a few of you pour your own weights and I saw this on craigslist (not mine)

Looks like a really good price at $5 per pound for weights/bullets.

At first I thought five dollars! Pure tin is worth that much!!

It is actually a dollar a pound which is a pretty decent deal for clean lead ingots.

Unknown alloy, but for fishing it will not matter...

Like so many other things

On craigslist . Is it real? At that price someone could make thousands. Who has the mold ? I am willing to load up . Feel free to shoot me price.

Yea I meant $5 per ingot. I think those are 5 pound ingots? I see them online for $12-$19 per ingot so looks like a good price if someone is close to the seller.

Lyman ingot molds are right around a pound each.

I'd consider the drive if I didn't already have 1500 pounds of known alloy...

I too would be interested in paying into this if someone had the molds and was willing to pour it.

I knew it sounded to good to be true

Has anyone made contact with him ? So what would be the going rate 12 pcs / 4 oz for 5$ ? That was my last hook up in china town . Needless to say , at those prices his shop went out of business.
