Well, l'see.

A .45 Cal bullet weighs about 250 Grains. figger figger that's about 16 grams figger figger or one half OZ troy.

Silver spot price at close tonight was $15.05 so a .45 silver bullet would cast about $7.50.

A quick google for handgun ammo shows .45 cal cartridges selling for about a buck apiece.

So, silver bullets are going to come in at roughly an order of magnitude more spendy than regular old jacketed lead.

Well, I guess I might waste one on ole Cavendish, but I think I'll be sticking to lead for the horde of savage (fill in the blank)
