Cheap Lead Wire Source

I recently picked up some lead wire from Nick over at Nielson Specialty Ammo (NSA). His price is great at $3.31 per pound shipped on a spool. It is top quality wire for all your swaging needs. He has wire ranging in size from .166 to .470.

I figured I’d share this because I never did like paying over $5.50 per pound from Corbin.

I bought some from Rotometals in the past and was about to suggest that. But I just checked and they're at $8/lb, plus shipping.

Yeah and you can actually buy 50# spools and it brings the cost down to $2.97 per pound shipped.
