I've not seen any reports for why any rifle with gain rifling in the twist couldn't shoot lead bullets and coated is little different than lubed lead. So I would say NO to this question.

I had the carcano out the other day it shot a .688 4 shot group at 50m with open sights so that answers that. Now I just need to try some longer shots
