If your bullet alloy is a true alloy then the tin won’t leach out. A bullet at the start of your casting session should be the same hardness as one at the end. Mine are in order because I line them up as I cast so that’s the way they are weighed and go in the boxes.
I keep my bullets weight to 1 tenth of a grain for every 100 grains of weight. 120 grain 25s all within 1 tenth, 217 Grain 32 all within 2 tenths etc.

If the process is repeatable, I could leave my lead pot on for several hours and take two samples - one from the top and one through the bottom pour spout.  (and then have them analyzed for percentages of metals) 

Would you consider this a fair test?  If so I'll do it.

Or one from the first bullets and 1 a hundred + later, last poured. Personnelly think if the weights stay the same hardness should be good.

I keep mine in order because they are laid out in a row like 40Rod rather than dropped into a pile .  

I really doubt it makes much difference, but I shoot them out of the box in the order cast.  I have shot my culls in the middle of a group of good match grades.  I couldn't tell the difference on the target. That tells me I'm too particular, but I'm confident in the bullets if properly lubed.  That is a whole nother story.

I think John L. posted his technique 3 or 5 years ago, and I've been using it ever since.  With a 9x9 rubber baking pan.  Saves me a lot of time and I don't tip one over and get the "domino" effect anymore!!  Works slick!
Thanks John!

Regards, Joe
