I talked to a guy at the range who went to some local tire shops asking for old WW and they all said something along the lines of "you'll have to talk to Bill (or whatever) as he's been taking anything we get for years for casting bullets" or something like "you're not the first to come asking, but we'll add you to the list for if the other guys stop showing up"
You not dealing with french. It's impossible to explain anything they never heard of before. And trying to get them to understand I want lead and not plumbing fixtures is another problem.
