[QUOTE="RAMS, post: 1494584, member: 14368"] "Hardcast lead would probably be harder. " I thought so, too. But at the OKC gun show last weekend, the fellow selling bullets for guys who roll their own told me copper bullets were harder than Federal CastCore lead. It probably depends on the specific alloy used. In any case, I don't reload so I'm trying to determine whether there is a factory cartridge that uses a solid copper (or copper with lead core) bullet that penetrates just as well or better than the 180 grain Federal CastCore load.
