I posted a similar thread to this on the paper patched section and then got around to making these capped boolits in a GG mold rather than swaging them.
I think they are pretty neat!
The caps are jackets for swaging 45cal pistol bullets.
Can anyone here think of an advantage these may have over a regular cast RN boolit?
Maybe straighter penetration or perhaps different expansion than a standard cast projectile?
