Got any lead?
I am looking for some lead to melt down for decoy weights. Anyone have any around the house they looking to get rid of? can be tire weights or whatever. preferably not too far away from Walker/Baton Rouge

My buddy would go to southern scrap & get 50lb blocks, they melt down the tire weights & remove all steel clips, much easier!

Scrap yard would be good. My cousin owns one here in LC and my grandpa goes there to get lead to make bb's for his skeet load reloads

Some tire shops will give you some lead..... but in my experience, most won't.
Bring your own bucket...... make sure it is strong. |

IF you are making strap weights dont use the tire weights .The lead is too hard and the weights will break when you bend them.
