Description

This is 50 lbs (2 bags at 25 pounds each) of raw reclaimed lead that has not been washed     It is also great for making scuba weights, for use as ballast weight or a cheap lead source for other projects. Please be aware that these BB's may still have a small amount of foreign objects, i.e. pebbles or dirt in it. The bag will contain a mix of all sizes - mainly around 7.5 and 8. Our reclaimed lead averages about 5% Antimony Lead. Bulk orders of this product are available. This is the best value for inexpensive ballast weight.

NOT to be melted  or reloaded in shells-  just weight only 

Each bag measures approximately 10" x 5" x 2"

Approximate Pounds per cubic foot: 350 - 380 pounds

    Exactly what I was looking for. Fits perfectly into Caldwell zipper bags for use with Caldwell lead sled shooting bench. Best price on line plus free freight.

    I would order again

    Product is exactly as described. Used to fill my Caldwell portable bags for my Caldwell lead sled. Exactly the right amount to fill 4 small bags with a total weight of 50 lbs. Great customer service and quick shipping. A lot less expensive than purchasing 50 lbs. of #9 lead shot.

    The best thing out of all this is that they always have shot they always have lead and their response time is great thank you very much I will definitely keep buying from them

    Great Quality

    Posted by Dave Peeters on Feb 1st 2021

    Very clean shot, looked new even though it said reclaimed. Free shipping advertised but then you get an email that says 10-15 days so I paid $12.00 extra for 2 day shipping, kind of disappointing

    Best ballast I've found

    Posted by Steven Stresau on Oct 26th 2020

    I used this to level my 42' sailboat which had a 2 or three degree list to starboard. I had a space with only a couple inches of vertical clearance and these bags fit in perfectly. I put off doing this for years because lead was so expensive, but this stuff is way cheaper than clean lead and is perfect for this purpose.

    Ballast Weight

    Posted by Satisfied on Oct 12th 2020

    It arrived exactly as described, shot from ranges that had been sifted out and bagged. This leaves pebbles the same size or smaller, silt, steel shot, etc. so be prepared for that if you're buying this to melt. In the end, I was able to recover about 85% by weight in lead by melting into ingots. Shot like this is usually about 5% antimony at most, and little if any other additives. I think in the future I may just go ahead and buy the already washed and graphited shot or ingots as the yield by weight will be higher enough to make up for the price difference. Prompt shipping and competitive price, will definitely order from here again. The only way to do better on lead price is to also do the recovery/scrapping work yourself.
