Understand that but what is the plating over? For example X-Treme Bullets are popular but they are a lead bullet with a copper plating. So while I understand plated bullets the plating needs to go over something. Do you mean no bullets with exposed lead? Just using X-Treme as an example. There are totally lead free bullets like solid copper and other alloys but they get expensive. That is why I questioned it.Reloadron: I can purchase plated bullets for nearly the same cost as lead. Plus I don't have to futz with lead removal from my barrels. And no, the no lead requirement is not a statewide rule. I believe it keeps the indoor air cleaner (no 'purple haze'). If I want to shoot lead rounds I can bop over to my outdoors range I belong to.
