[QUOTE="LoneTraveler, post: 1943558, member: 77249"] The Speer Hot core Bullets seem soft compared to other bullets. I wonder how the cooling process is done after the hot core is installed, If the copper content in the gilding metal is cooled quick the jacket will be soft. Sort of like annealing case necks and the copper content of brass softening from heat and quick quinching. [/QUOTE]
