Most of EK bullets were high antimony and were of known alloy content, plus all that was 50 years ago.
Elmer's bullets used ZERO antimony. His favorite .44 Magnum SWC load used a 16:1 (Pb:Sn) alloy.

The problem I have with casting is that I'm dumber than soup
Do yourself a favor. Don't process raw wheel weights in the same pot you plan to cast out of. It's a quick way to have a lot of impurities in your finished bullets. Make sure you separate the wheel weights by type and flux a lot. They take some work to clean up.
While you are at the Goodwill, pick up a couple of muffin tins to use for ingot molds. It doesn't matter if they are Steel or Aluminum.
