Brian, Hi-temp Hi-force 44 melts at 650f. Two different solders.

Is my math right? Is that a round every 3.5 seconds for 2.5 hours? That's incredible!

Gotcha. Missed the high temp part. Thanks for clarifying.

Your forend wood will burst into flames (or the multi-trap will seize) before you ever remotely approach the temps required to melt the solder used to hold your barrels together.

Anyone where to get 60/40 or 50/50 lead solder, all I can find is lead free, it does not flow or hold as well as lead tin.

eBay does pretty well with it. Search for solder and stained glass. The suppliers for stained glass cameing have some great choices for a few great ratios. You will just need your own flux. The solder is not cored. I have had good luck with Avril 63/37. Avril has 50/50 and 60/40 too.
