LegendLength the barrel is what contains the pressure pushing outward from inside the bullet casing, making the bullet the weakest point for the pressure to release through. Without the barrel, the explosion just blows the bullet casing wide open and the bullet barely goes anywhere.

Cody'sLab you would make an epic science teacher. But not in a public school, or a private school, but one of those authentic alternative schools where they actually teach valuable stuff.

Thanks for taking us to the range to collect. There's a Boy Scout shooting range that's open to the public near me and I never considered mining for lead until now. You got me started on a lot of my cool hobbies and making my own bullets is next. I've been reloading for years but never even thought about making my own 5.56 and .44 bullets. And my hunting calibers.

I've always wondered how much lead is in the ground at the ranges, I didn't even think about the copper. With the price of lead now, I'm surprised someone doesn't go out commercially and collect it. Cheers for an interesting and informative video Cody. 👍

Legal outdoor ranges will let the bullets build up to a point then do a mass cleaning generally with a trommel to quickly pull the bullets from the dirt/sand the brims are made from. Most recycling places will not touch copper from bullets as it is classed as a hazardous material due to the lead that sticks to it even after melting it out. To make it into something they will take you have to melt it into bars or find the few that deal with it but pay far less then coppers scrap value. The brass is also a good thing to collect in both legal and illegal ranges both for reloading or for melting down.

Newer ranges have prefabricated metal trenches beneath the berm to collect up the spent bullets, and are usually sifted out for recycling once a year or so. The indoor range at my club collects all the spent bullets from the trap [although club members who cast their own bullets are welcome to take some too] and puts them in 55 gallon drums for a recycling company to take. The proceeds (about $5000-$6000 annually) are used to fund the youth shooting and firearms safety program.

That has to be so satisfying to get the lead brick out and feel the weight.

I have a couple ideas for a video, for example you could take a small disc of of flattened gold foil then cool it in liquid nitrogen and then place it over a magnet to see if you can achieve quantum levitation. Or you could make a whopping big capacitor to do something with, because whopping big capacitors are always fun ;).

Man i think of a question to ask at the end and jeez you answer it before i get there. Like breathing in the dust!!!!! Awesome love the videps

@GunFunZS

8 жыл бұрын

bcubed72 For just about anything using smokeless powder you need an alloy harder than pure lead. Basically the bullet needs to be hard enough not to warp under the pressure of acceleration, but soft enough to obturate into the rifling. i.e. it needs to be within the 'spring back' range of compression. Thus there is no single ideal alloy. It must be tuned to the load, or the load tuned to the bullet. The higher the chamber pressure the harder you alloy needs to be. For black powder, pure lead or pure with a little tin in it is standard.(aprox 5-8 Brinell Hardness Number) Non magnum pistol bullets do OK in the 12-14 BHN range. 18-22 BHN will do for moderate rifle loads (including most of the reduced power loads that are typically designated as suitable for cast bullets). For modern rifle pressure at full power you tend to need 32-36 BHN. Hardness needs to be such that the compressive strength of your bullet is 90% of the force which acts upon it. There is a formula to derive ideal alloy from your known or estimated peak chamber pressure. It really does produce better performing ammo, and is a huge labor saver over guessing and checking. I find that I can find the accuracy node between alloy and slight variations in charge weight in a single range trip. I heat treat my bullets for more consistent properties and to get more performance out of cheaper alloys.

@GunFunZS

***** Yes, I meant for the guns most people shoot. I know you have a mosin-nagant from your other vids. If you were casting for that, you would need an alloy in the 22-34 BHN range.

The guide nearly had a heart attack, got him to stand exactly where he was and recreate the throw with a rock. When they screened it out of the river, the guide sliced a chunk off of the outer lead casing to reveal a solid gold nugget. They paid for their vacation, everyone else's food & drink for the night, and gave the guide a big tip. We also had the opportunity to pan at one of the beaches on Nova Scotia, which the rangers say on average will yield after a full day about what you pay for one day of access to the park, and lunch... About $10-$20 worth. Again, fun, not really profitable.

Hello CodyDon! I´m Daniel, a big fan of science, and ofcourse your vids. You´v put up a few vids about Lead over the years and I found it very interesting as usual. Recently I get the hold of a dead lead acid car battery, thinking I could melt the lead down to cute ingots, just for the fun of it and also to learn in the process. But, to my disappointment, I was to discover that the only lead to melt was the bars at the top of the battery that connects the cells together inside, and some in the grid of the plates after removing the brittle pasty stuff on it. I noticed that after removing this brittle stuff (Lead Dioxide and Sponge Lead according to wikipedia) from the lead, it still had some weight to it, although I could´nt see any typical metal in it. One plate is dark brown and the other is leadish grey. It seemed to make up for the majority of the batterys weight, making me think it was some kind of lead but not in its metallic state. I wanted to melt this down as well instead of just put it in the recycle bin. But when trying to melt these two compounds it did´nt form any lead at all, but only a yellow glossy brittle thing that needed way more heat to form then the lead it self. Maybe because of sulfuric acid resedue? I don´t know. This is probably obvious to many, but my chemistry knowledge is nothing to brag about. Anyway, this brings me to my question. Is it possible to turn the Lead Dioxide and Sponge Lead back to regular metallic Lead? After all I want all the lead I possible could get out of the battery. But if it includes some advanced chemistry to achieve I probably just leave it on the shelf for now. Anyhow, it could be interesting to know the procedure. Knowledge is king/queen after all =) Have a nice day all.

The word lead has 2 main meanings I think. Lead as in the element Pb. Lead (pronounced with a long e sound, like Leed or see) which means to have someone follow you, and "led" is the past tense of "lead, and sounds like how you say the element lead Pb. But lead(long ee) can also mean an exposed wire in an electrical circuit (he says "im going to connect these two leads) and it can also mean a pipe or hose that transfers something important as in this pipe leads into the engine. english is fun haha

just saying currently the price of lead is 85 cents a pound. That means you've got about $85 of lead from that bucket, but the price of copper is $2.25 a pound. It would actually be worth it to try to melt down the casings (yes I know they are brass but still). It wouldn't be much more of a process and would net you a higher profit from the same material.

Drc362 casings would be much less concentrated. Many people reload and pick up all the brass that they find, plus different guns throw brass in completely different direction, 1 rifle might throw brass 40 feet forward and another might throw brass 10 feet backwards. Or 20 feet to the right.

Super cool video Cody!

What the heck?! I just came back to your channel to rewatch your "Cody's Mine" playlist but they've all been made private =( I loved those videos! Sometimes I watch your older videos bc for whatever reason I find them quite comforting and relaxing, not to mention enjoyable and educational! I'm sure you have your reasons but I'm still bummed.

@@bigjohn7818 Dirt cheap, doesn’t hurt gun barrel steel, and it’s the densest softest metal that carries the most momentum as a projectile. Very malleable and is perfect for hollowpoints and other expanding bullets. People have been shooting and eating animals with lead for 1,000 years now and lead poisoning is not even a remote concern if you clean the animal correctly. You don’t eat any meat around where the bullet/shot entered/fragmented. The biggest lead hazard with shooting is not the bullets at all but the primer compound lead styphnate which is vaporized upon firing and is inhaled by the shooter especially indoors. Only thing similar to lead in shooting is bismuth or tungsten in a polymer matrix. But lead is so superior with expanding hunting/defensive bullets and the others are way too expensive. Steel shot sucks so much and wounds as many birds as it kills and it’s not suitable for handguns or rifles except as jacket material and even then it causes forest fires from sparks. Uranium makes a great bullet too but it’s too hard to work with, too expensive, and the ATF and NRC both frown strongly upon them because they’re both armor piercing and radioactive. Copper is becoming a lot more popular but every bullet has to be precision machined which makes the ammo prohibitively expensive for anything but hunting or defense. Nobody could afford to shoot 2-500 rounds a month for practice.

I totally enjoy everything Cody does. So MUCH using such basic, simple tools and a LOT of knowledge. However, I grew up in the days when lead was considered a non-reactive metal. My big old tomcat and I used to spend hours hunting with my pellet gun. It was a single shot, so I carried the pellets under my tongue so I could rapidly reload and shoot down sparrows...and the cat was in the game for the dead birds. Somehow, and of course modern scientific hysterics will wet their panties in dismay, I managed to earn several advanced degrees, score over 145 on IQ tests, and become very successful in several highly technical business endeavors.... while growing up with lead bullets in my mouth. I wonder what I could have achieved if, somehow, I had known what the hysterics know today.

Wow. The lead looks really shiny and clean once it's been melted down.

That was actually really interesting what a nice video man keep it up

Granted most have been spread out through his life(mainly adult life)... He does as good of a job at being safe as he needs to without drastically affecting his life(meaning, he takes in some stuff for sure but nothing that matters to much). Even when he feels like he might of taken to much of something he then runs some tests on himself to just make sure everything is kool.
