Well I made a mess tonight trying to melt some old shot. I picked up a coffee can of old tarnished shot from the scrapyard several years ago. Tried melting it down tonight. Well that turned into a huge mess. It would not melt unless you smashed each piece of shot. I got so mad I just dumped the pot into the scrap bucket.
I tried to use a torch to melt it but that didn't even work. I have almost 30lbs of this. I might just put some in the rock tumbler with some graphite to see if it comes around. I have a few friends local that still reload trap rounds so they could use it. It is all #8 shot.
Or does anyone else have a way to melt this down? I would rather keep it.
