About three years ago I was working at a large intersection of multi-lane highways when I noticed a lead tire weight lying along the edge of the road. "Ooooohhhh," (I said to myself), "a WHEELWEIGHT!!!" 8-)

And then I spotted another, and another...... "Holy Crap!" :twisted:

Since then I have returned to that intersection every few months (and others as well) and I always find some new bullet lead laying there.

Here is what I found this past Wednesday morning when the sun came up:

The BIG ONE is a truck tire weight weighing a quarter pound! That's going to make fourteen FREE 124-gr 9mm bullets all by itself.

Thanks, Shooter.

I brought home a 1/3 full bucket of wheel weights this morning but I'm still getting a kick out of these little finds I come across in unexpected places. This one intersection yeilds up about 15-20 weights every month or so! It all goes to a growing cache of lead.
