    J-word is the sneered at jacketed bullet
    Beagling is the process of adding aluminum shims/tape to the mold surfaces to increase the diameter of a cast boolit. For specifics do a search. Ther is lots of info.

    I got a weird look from the clerk at Home Depot when I slipped and asked for "Beagling tape" to repair a leak in my attic a/c ductwork.
