Bob Peterson, founder of Peterson Publishing, part owner of Bismuth Cartridge and the bismuth shot patents, died this spring. With bismuth prices through the roof I suspect sales were down and the accountants that are overseeing his estate didn't like the ROI that they were getting.

This is an opportunity for all you backyard shot makers to set up for bismuth shot production. There is data from Australia that outlines how and all you have to do is buy a 20K lb. container of bismuth powder to get a fair discount. Anyone want to accept the liability for the commercial loading of shells?
