Four Metals in Cast Bullet Alloys

  • Lead (Pb): A heavy, ductile metal that helps carry a bullets momentum until it reaches the target. Lead can be heat treated to lessen brittleness and conducts heat very slowly, making it an ideal alloy for bullet making.
  • Antimony (Sb): Another metal used to strengthen and harden bullets. It’s tin-like qualities help the alloy to flow easier into the mold.
  • Tin (Sn): Helps to reduce dross, or minimal waste, during casting.
  • Arsenic (As): Acts as a catalyst during heat treating process.
