RE: Recovered 2-diameter PPB.
Jim,
That sounds almost exactly the alloy what Kurt is using .
Do I recall correctly that the 95-5 is 95tin/5Antimony?
Interestingly, I ran across a copy I made of a report by Dan Theodore on antimony containing alloys he
found to be working /shooting well with long ogive bullet designs. His final recommendation was
97% lead, 1.5% Antimony, 1.5% tin.
My 9+1 COWW/Lino alloy is estimated to be:
94.5% lead/4.5%Antimony/1%tin. Lee hardness 15.4
