A friend asked me this question about water quenching pure lead pistol bullets. Would they have a surface hardening enough to drive them faster than if they were soft lead? Would they still retain their soft center to upset and expand like a soft point when an object is hit? Anybody ever come across this type of experiment, or try this procedure? My arthritis won`t let me try casting out in the cold barn till Spring is why I`m asking for some input from this board.Robert
