it's about the same currently. and it's been around for about a decade. smells funny, but works well enough.

>>29498619
They're charging more than copper plated because HERP LESS CLEANING DERP NONTOXIC PRIMER HURR HIGHER MUZZLE VELOCITY

I'm sticking to American Eagle FMJ.

I'd lie to see a 5.56mm option for plinking.


I'll take any advantage I can get to get more milage out of my barrel.

Cleaning your gun is half the fun. I use cheap dirty ammo and cleaning the gunk off everything is all the better

In factory ammo? or only as bare bullets for reload?
>>
>>29498798
Foes it not? You'll just have lead and some of the polymer residue scrapping the barrel instead of copper, no?
>>
>>29499041
The lead literally gets pieces cut off by hot propellant gas if it's not shielded by a more heat-resistant metal that seals the lead off from the powder. Not only does this make the bullet fly randomly and miss, but it leaves a bunch of lead in your barrel that has to be removed before firing jacketed bullets again.

Can the polymer coating withstand rifle-pressure gas? I don't know.
>>
>>29498965
This.

During bird season I only shoot estate cases of dove shot and Winchester Xpert steel for ducks and geese.

It's pretty satisfying to outshoot my clients and buddies and get that nice boresnake puff&cloud of shit.
Then going out the next day and outs hooting the expensive ammo once again.

As far as handguns go, FMJ is so cheap I don't get why anyone would look to an alternative.
