The price of lead?

art leong · 05-25-2008, 11:20 AM

Trying to buy some lead shot. And I'm not pleased with the price.
Anybody got any suggestions?

Another place to try is a gun range, you might able to buy some of the rounds that they have pulled out of the target area. You will have to pull out some of the brass that may be mixed in.

I've got a better/cheaper idea. Stop by your local tire shop. They usually have a bucket full of old tire weights.
