Linotype was used to make type for printing processes. I don't think many people use it now. Back in the late 70's our local newspaper changed from linotype to electronic typesetting. My dad and some members of his shooting club bought all of the metal from the newspaper. We had tons of the stuff. We also went to an indoor range and "mined" lead from the pistol range. I cast many bullets back then. I even used them for .222 Rem, .308 Winchester and M1 carbine low velocity rounds. I would use brass gas checks on the base to prevent leading of the barrel.
