How Much Is Lead a Pound
80 Cents per pound.
As of February 2015 the current market spot price for pure lead is 80 cents per pound. Today I bought 300 pounds of scrap wheel weights for 27 cents per pound. I bought it from a tire sales store.
I had difficulty finding a tire store that would actually sell me their scrap lead. All the national chain stores told me that their scrap lead is collected by “corporate”. I believe it’s most likely recycled into new wheel weights and sold again. But this particular store had run an ad on Craigslist wanting to sell their scrap lead. I drove down there and bought it.
This means that I now need only… Continue reading
Government Banning AR-15 Ammo
Here again, is evidence to support my quest for learning to cast and reload my own bullets. The government is now moving to ban .223 ammunition which is used in America’s most popular rifle, the AR-15. By the way, if you haven’t joined the NRA, click the link on the left side of this page.

Is Reloading 9mm Worth It – The Coming Lead Bullet Ban

But what’s of much greater value than the cost of a bullet is your second amendment rights and we’ve already seen the lead bullet ban in California. I believe that now is the time to learn how to reload your own bullets, regardless of cost or savings.
In my opinion, it just makes since that liberals and those who support gun control would try… Continue reading
Where To Shoot a Hog
Hunting wild hogs is very different from hunting deer and requires a different shot placement. Hog’s have a very tough shoulder blade which can stop an arrow and in some cases even a bullet.
Shot placement on a whitetail deer is always a heart or lung shot. However, the best shot placement for a wild hog is behind the ear.
In most situations, this shot will drop a hog right where he’s… Continue reading

Hunting Public Land and Courtesy to Others
This weekend I went to the public wildlife management area near my home to do some scouting. The WMA doesn’t permit motorized vehicles beyond the parking lot and the entrance to the WMA is one mile from the parking lot. For this reason most people entering the area do so on mountain bikes.
I was riding my bike up the main trail past the first gated entrance when suddenly I spotted a wild turkey just a short distance inside the barbwire. Looking twice, however, I realized it was fake. I looked a little further and saw a blind set up with two men peeking over it watching me ride by.
My first thought was, “Sorry for riding through your… Continue reading
