This is the correct way to reclaim shot. This shot is ready for some graphite, and then it’s off to the reloader. The outfit that does our reclamation leaves our shot very dirty and as many of us know it’s a tremendous amount of work to properly clean shot. I’d be willing to bet they get a better price than our outfit.
It’s simple take a 5 gallon bucket and a shovel out to wherever you’re going to Prospect. Fill it full of dirt rocks grass and your lead shot. Take a shot back and stick the nozzle in your 5 gallon bucket and suction off all the dirt rocks grass etc. now envision this being on a larger scale.

I am drooling right now thinking about how many bullets I could case from one of those drums :) Amazing system guys!
Do this to Hickok45's land and you'll be rich.
I'll take 50lbs if it's ok..... Save me a trip to Cabela's for shot
Where do you buy reclaimed shop? I know that Winchester (Olin Corp) does this at their shotgun range. But, I have no idea where to buy reclaimed shot.
Sell it as reclaimed shot for reloading shotgun shells. Its not as good as new shot but it works fine up to about the 22 yard line.
that is cool! I couldnt hear what you were saying in the video though.
That's sweet!!!
that is insane! I would love to have a few barrels of that shot for reloading! what do you guys do with all of that?
It is a trap range. Most places do it every couple years.
Wow
How so?
Do you supply reclaimed lead?
Was this lead shot from bullets shot by hunters over the years?
It looks like a shooting club.
Reloading? not enough damage done? try copper.
Probably melt it down and sell it.
You know there is a much easier way to do that with a lot less equipment right?
I’m very interested in your method
How’s that?

There's a machine with belts that dry shifts the soil.
