[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2276656, member: 10755"] I do not believe the core melts per se’. I think it is more the fact that jackets are lubricated prior to the lead slug being inserted…the heat causes this to get even slipperier and the core is able to slip inside the jacket. Have sectioned many bullets, the core slides upwards feeding the mushroom as they expand, so cup and core bullets are free to move independently of each other. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
