how do you all test your lead for hardness? I've picked up some lead recently that the seller wasn't sure what the hardness was (COWW or stick on). for the price it was worth it to play with it and see but wondered how everyone tests the hardness of their lead if they aren't sure..
I've seen the Lee tester and sounds like it's a good option, and maybe there are some ways to make it better.
I've got bars I'd like to test before I start casting with them. some buckshot (want pure lead) and some standard bullets I want wheel weights and maybe some added tin/antimony
