yes you are right...tinned copper (I even checked just to make sure). Again, my local buyer doesn't want them mixed, they run them as shred because of the high amount of pcv coating vs actual wire. YMMV depending on your buyer. I guess if I still got TONS of it, I would ship it out, but the amounts I get, just don't add up ($$$ vs work). I just KISS (keep it simple stupid), shed it after end get chopped on those and off I go.



Each has their own personal situation of course. Was just my 2 cents.
