Got off work a lil early this morning. Decided to go see if anybody had left some hulls at the Dept.Wildlife Cinservation range. Only found 4. Found about 10lbs of scrap in the run-off washed from the rains we've had lately though. 👍
I used to do this before I found out I could buy scrap lead as cheap as 75 cents per pound. I can sell just a tiny amount of buckshot to cover expenses.
@@12galife It's hardly free, given the labor involved. How much would you charge someone to dig and sift through a bunch of dirt to supply them lead? I sure wouldn't do it for 75 cents per pound. Our local range now wants to charge you for digging it up and for collecting hulls as well.
no real need to wash it but if there's solid bullets, you'll need to cut them if they aren't hollow points or smash to let the lead out. I like a good clean video
Thanks for watching Ben. I wouldn't go through the process of washing it all but the berm at the public range is very dirty. Don't want anything going on the pot that doesn't belong in there.

Good video. I needed to see how the dirt separated before I melt down the scrap I’ve collected.

Thanks for watching John. I do buy lead once in a while if I can get it cheap. But free is the way to go for me

@@showproja I agree it's a bit of hard work but I have plenty of free time these days so it gives me something constructive to do
Wish I could find it for 75 cents a pound!

How do you get the range owner to let you do this?
It is on state land open to the public. Thanks for watching
Lot's of bullets there .
Thanks for watching James
