Alloy math

[Don McDowell]

Would it be 1lb,9oz of tin?
I struggle with such stuff. But seems like you'd have one lb of tin for the first 16 lb of lead, and one oz for the next 9lbs of lead.

btw... if you turn the temp down in your pot 50 degrees is you bullet gonna get heavier or lighter?

John, I'm thinking you're pretty close, or at least that's about what I came up with too.

On the temperature thing most of the molds I have will drop a lighter bullet when the alloy and the blocks aren't quite to temp.
