[QUOTE="Seth247, post: 1246816, member: 12010"] The process of making your own jacketed bullets is called "swaging". It is cheap, fairly easy and you can make some pretty cool bullet designs that you cant buy with factory ammo. However the first time equipment fee is kinda high as some of the cheaper reloading presses can't handle the pressure of swaging. Most high end ones can IIRC. The lead core is cheap and the jacket can be made from copper or spent brass casings that have been annealed. [/QUOTE]
