Pure lead in about 5 lbs ingots for bullet casting. Ordering 10 ingots is ordering about 50 lbs. These are great for cowboy shooting as they are, but if you want to harden them up, add tin and antimony with can be procured locally from junk yards or on line. Each bar is about 5" x 2.25" x 1.25"
Basic Rules for Hardening Lead-
For every 1% additional tin, Brinell hardness increases 0.3.
For every 1% additional antimony, Brinell hardness increases 0.9.
For a simple equation,
Brinell = 8.60 (Antimonial Lead) + ( 0.29 * Tin ) + ( 0.92 * Antimony )
