Bounce Lead for Sinkers?????

Just got a new sinker mold in...No Roll for 3/4/5 oz sinkers. I have a limited supply of lead, was wondering if anyone had any ideas on where to get some besides the tire shops, seems everybody is hitting those guys up. About 6 more weeks and the big cats should be turned on..i am getting the FEVER bad..Thanks Warren

I don't know where you live but I live in Jacksonville Fl. and a buddy of mine that races is holding about a 5 gallon bucket full of wheel weights for me to come get. I am only gonna keep 1/2 of it though. You are welcome to the rest.

Lead

I purchased a 5-6 oz jig mold a few months ago and have used tire weights and also purchased lead for scrap medal shops(cheep). The tire do not pour as good as the tire lead. I end up mixing in about 25% tire lead with the purchased lead. Tire weight are not as pure and will not pour as well as the pure soft lead. Just my 2cents. Good luck

And I bought about $15 of lead and have made about 100 5-6 oz jigs and still have over half of the lead left.
