RE: casting
Yup sure have Jim.

A couple years ago I melted down a whole 5 gallon bucket full of recovered snow bullets. Pulled the handle off when I slid it in the loader bucket. Also a couple thousand bullets taking up room from not getting used. Took about a week to melt them down three times in a big Cast iron pot to get them all blended so the alloy would be close to being the same and did it again after they where 2# ingots.
No clue what the hardness ended up being, but the new bullets shoot quite well in all my calibers Smile
