hrb bullets sound like they are made from what was once known a taracorp magnum alloy. 2%tin, 6% antimony, 92% lead. it is about as hard as lyman no 2 alloy, 5%tin, 5% antimony ,90%lead, or a little harder, but cheaper to make, primarily due to the cost of tin. this alloy is oretty much stock in tra...

glad it is just not me.
sad such a golden opportunity for the seller and buyers is being destroyed with such skill.
would it be worth letting brownells usa know what is really happening this end.
