2 months ago While waiting for my reloading equipment to arrive. I purchased some lead off eBay (wheel weights). When I picked it up. The guy had a good amount that he hadn't listed yet so I bought 125lbs more for less than on eBay. I haven't used any of it yet. But received an email from the guy ( spam folder) stating that part of the lead he sold me had zinc in it.
I have already mixed the 250lbs of lead ingots by stacking them together in a box.
I have heard zinc in cast bullets is a no no. Yet the guy I bought them from said I can either skim it off the top or crank up the heat and use them.
What do/can I do?? I really don't want to waste over $150 worth of product.
