I want to cast bullets in lots of 1000 with the following results.
1. Brinell hardness 17-22, all bullets being ±1.5 points of one another.
2. Bullets to remain at the hardness indefinitely -- that is, 24 months after casting, the bullets are ±1.5 points of the Brinell number they were 2 months after being cast.
***
Please identify a casting alloy (elements and percentages by weight) a Brinell hardness between 17 and 22?
What -- exactly -- must I do after casting to stabilize the bullets, for uniform hardness as well as for hardness range, for storage of up to 2 years?
