I've got quite a bit of range scrap lead, a hodge podge of melted down FMJ pistol bullets, 22's, old round balls, etc. Using sketch pencils to test the hardness of the ingots, it appears to be around 7-9 BHN or basically 40:1 or 25:1 lead/tin. Can this be used to cast round balls or conicals...
A perfectly ROUND ball does not improve accuracy, and is not needed. That sounds like heresy, but if you understand how the ball is upset on firing, and distorted a bit when loaded into a rifled barrel with a tight patch, because its made of pure lead, a perfectly round ball is just not needed for any shooting within the range and velocity limits of the …

With the government/states banning lead in more and more areas what could we use to substitute for lead in our smoke poles? Our round ball guns tend to use a very slow rifling twist. That tends to be fine for round balls but not so good for longer conical types of bullets. Do we use...
I have been an advocate of the use of a rock tumbler to smooth out your newly cast round balls. Here's how I do it: I remove any tumbling media from the rock tumbler and make sure it is clean inside. Then I add about 100 balls (.50 cal, a few more if you are casting smaller balls) to the tumbler and turn it on for about 30 minutes. You …
It might just be that the barrel does not like the diameter. Also a good cast ball will out shoot swaged balls and likely buckshot as well. So it may not the the alloy. Balls cast from harder alloys, for example, may require a thinner patch than lead balls from the same mould since they cast larger than pure lead. I shoot a .015 linen for WW ...

I will shoot round ball made from pretty well any lead, have even used an old Puter plate, If I`m shooting say a 58cal I will pour balls of .562 when using wheel weights and .570 if using soft lead like roof flashing. The hard lead does not shrink as much as soft lead once cooled.

In addition to using pure lead for casting Minnies (to ensure proper skirt expansion into the groves), pure lead should be used for balls or conicals to be shot from a cap & ball revolver. Harder (alloyed) lead can over stress the loading lever when shearing a lead ring when loading. Glad you have some good lead - it works for any BP application.
Unlike modern unspeakable ammo, Lead from a ML usually doesn't scatter as it isn't designed to be frangible. That said if you hit bone, I have found pieces of lead around where the wound is. Lead poisoning is usually from sustain MICRO particles, like the smoke from modern bullets in enclosed shooting ranges.

Describing a muzzleloading gun or cap and ball pistol by the bore size was common back in the day. Your pistol should shoot a .321 diameter lead ball. A ball this size or slightly larger will totally seal off the .319 diameter chambers in the cylinder and come close to matching the groove size in the barrel.
