Title: Going rate for Lead/ Antimony bullion?
Post by: cmurphy on September 12, 2016, 07:05:27 PM: Was wondering if some of you reloaders out there can help me determine a good price for Lead/ Antimony bullion?
Also Lead Bird shot for reloading?
Is there a particular site that prices are compared against? Thanks in advance

It looks like a 5 pound ingot of 3-5% antimony/ 95-97% lead is selling for $9.99 right now, not factoring in shipping.

welcome to the forum. Introduce yourself.

Don't the local shops still sell shot?

As far as the alloy, like wichita says...it depends on the percentages.

FWIW
Locally, I notice that there are not many people who still cast bullets
In fact I notice that new shooters don't get into reloading as much as before either.
