wheel weights are to hard for muzzle loaders and my trapdoor and sharps at low vel you require softer metal to engage rifling but i use wheel weights in vel over 1600 with gaschecks in my marlin..

I use wheel weights through my Vetterli at 1350fps. Anything softer, and it leads up for fun.

looking for a source of straight lead to use in sub 1400 vel will be using a hollow base bullet and xmp 5744 must be pure lead to start load testing will ad tin in increments....but finding a source of pure lead is proving a prob.....

I've seen the bars of lead for sale in the MLAGB range warden's office at Wedgnock. Pretty sure its pure lead - I'll ask him this weekend whats-what.

Lead is abundant where I work.
In fact, I got 6 stone of lead for my mate who shoots a .577bp rifle and a .45bp pistol.
He doesn't need anymore lead!

Been accumulating as much lead as I can before the EU decides to meddle. For a taster of what may come, please see this letter:

Incidentally, the Swedish Chemical Agency and Environment Agency are the ones behind this move and they are pushing to make it EU-wide.
Yes but apart from that, Mrs Lincoln, what did you think of the performance?

That is a subject thats needs closer examination MM

Perhaps a case of dont ban guns just ban bullets

Yep. Just had a quick look at that document (216 pages of it!?) and from what I can glean, it would be a case of more nibbling at the edges and imposition of silly rules resulting in more expense to everyone. That would certainly be the European style.
I notice that of all the EU states, Britain (as usual) has most to lose, since according to the report it has the most sporting shooters (300,000).

cheapest i found at moment is £2.50 per pound??????????
