Coated you could probably get away with straight soft lead.

   I have been running wheel weights for so long I just run it.  So far no leading in anything.

   I only recently started trying to duplicate a Lyman #2 alloy and basically only did so because of the alloys I had on hand.

   And it just happened to add up close to lyman #2 so I smelted it all down into one batch.

   When I want pretty bullets I will add 2% tin to my wheel weight alloy- which unless tou get it tested can be anything.

    I run the “art pencil” hardness test on a few bullets if I need harder I will water drop.

    I made a batch of oven treated wheel weights and they came out nice and hard.

   Did it help anything, no idea
