I've been reading some old posts about reclaimed shot. I recently purchased a few bags of it and was starting to load it, but some of the posts have given me a bit of pause. I'm particularly curious about the idea of steel being in the lead.
I have no idea what percentage, if any, of steel is in this shot. For the sake of argument, I would assume very little. So if you have a steel pellet or two in a load with a plastic shot cup, what would be the concerns?
This stuff was $25/bag, and the local stores have shot currently at $50/bag, so there's incentive for me to shoot it, even though I'd rather shoot new stuff.
And in a second line of discussion - Any input on good pricing on new shot from the St. Louis, MO - Springfield, IL - If you are aware of any, please PM me.
