[QUOTE="azsugarbear, post: 1354497, member: 4809"] Just curious as to the type of bullet used. If it was lead, then you have a lot of different possibilities. Pure lead will tend to flatten out / mushroom / deform a little when used at normal black powder velocities and range. However, many manufacturers find that working with pure lead takes more time than using lead that has a little tin or antimony mixed in with it. These types of leads are / can be much harder than pure lead and rarely deform at any normal black powder velocity. PS - Been a member here since 2005. There was a time on this site when criticizing or castigating others was simply prohibited. IMO, calling someone's ethics into question has no place on this board. I appreciate the OP's willingness to share in the interest of learning together. [/QUOTE]
