[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 4108095, member: 15054"] What exactly happens with shooting a coated bullet through a sealed can? Is it unburned powder residue or is it the coating flaking off? I know for a fact powder coated bullets the coating does not flake off. You can smash them with a hammer and the coating stays on. I have smashed a store bought coated bullet and the coating flaked off like it was only paint from a spray can. Maybe if that flaking is the issue you could order a sample pack from a manufacturer and give them a tap or smash or shoot them. I cast my own bullets and powder coat them in a toaster oven and really enjoy them and they are the utmost inexpensive bullets to shoot. I have been collecting lead for decades though so that helps.
