[QUOTE="RTK, post: 858023, member: 47888"] Just threw that out, I have no idea how long at speed it would take to get to that temp or even what temp a bullet hits from friction in the barrel. I did "I think" read an article about berger bullets and the need to thicken the jackets so the lead would not liquefy/melt on some of their bullets. Maybe some engineering types can fill us in.
