O.K. I got out my camp stove and a small cast iron pot, bought 2 10lb chunks of lead off ebay and ordered a .490 and .530 mould from Cabelas.
Now I've got questions. The lead was sold to me as pure soft lead and I can divot it with my fingernail. It's got a blue color to it, like from heat. Is that what it's from or is it not pure? Also, what's the best way to get it from a 10lb chunk, 2"X12" or so, to a managable size? hacksaw?
Thanks
