Would these be of any interest?

I have 141 hard cast .312 lead bullets, they consistently weigh in at 188 grains.
I also have141 gas checks. If interested.
They aren't lubed though. I inherited them as is from someone giving up shooting.
I had planned to melt them down to cast pistol calibre bullets.

The only place for hard cast bullets is in a melting pot.
