hi all!..
So after loading about 30 round with my starting charge I apparently wasn't thinking and loaded berrys bullets (115gr flatpoint) come to find out they are lead...noticed that when I didn't flare the case enough on some testing blanks and it sheared off the side of the bullet..was thinking wow..those are soft ;-)
Anyone have opinions on shooting lead through the stock glock barrel?
Heard some say they do it some say no way...
I could always buy a wolf barrel or just dump the bullets and go with FMJ..kind of think the wolf barrel might be the way to go anyway. I do clean my gun each and every time I shoot with a sonic cleaner so I don't know if I would get the lead build up like they say causes the "kaboom effect".
Just wondering what others throughts are
Thanks!!
So an update to this..I have been doing some reading and it turns out that berrys are lead but they are also coated with copper to cut down on the lead fouling...I still pose the same question...ok to shoot though the stock barrel or pass on it and dump the bullet / get a wolf barrel...
