My range/club is in the middle of doing lead abatement. Every one of those barrels is chock filled to the top with bullets. Oh momma.
At the rate I cast that would last me a lifetime or three. I do have to wonder how much of it is mine. Also what the retail value of the ammo to fill those barrels is/was.

No dirt, no stones, just bullets. I assume though..

That's how they did it at the local range near my home. The lead "scrap" was included in the price.

Lead and temptation.
I work part time as a Range Officer at a public indoor range. (100 meters indoors, even!) They clean the lead out of the berms every August. This last August they had 50 drums after cleaning 3 of 4 bays - I don't know how many they ended up with. Anyhow, I have 5-5 gallon buckets I was allowed to pull out of one of the drums. I just got a lead furnace and 230 LRN mold, and today I'm going to start melting lead.
