Default CAST BULLET QUEST

Why cant I cast bullets for 50 cal Kentucky w wheel weights? Most cast bullets for smokeless rifles recommend harder than pure lead and use Wheel wts.

Is it ok if I skim shiny hard alloy off leaving mostly softer lead or will it create dangerous pressures? I know conicals need to be soft to expand and seal gas in barrel but wont WW produce acceptable accuracy even if I skim?
Also pure lead would lead barrel badly. Thanks!!
