	BACO is $17.50 per pound and Rotometals is $20 per pound. So I'd check shipping costs before ordering and see how they compare first.

	I don't think catwhisperer ships, but each Chinquapin SV match he is there with tin (except the one time recently when he couldn't be there so he sent some for me to sell) at very favorable prices. So what should you do? Hop a plane from AK to VA and come shoot with us and chalk it all up to your savings on tin! Froggie

	X2 for John Walters, about the most stand-up guy I know. Call him, place order, he ships fast and includes a bill, you send him a check, easy, easy.

	Fred Leeth of Pioneer Molds has tin. Is smaller pieces in a plastic bag so easy to make up small lots for testing, adding to 20# pot to get from one mix to another.
