These look interesting.

From Cutting Edge Bullets:








Yes and I think some, if not those particular ones you reverse and use them as solids. Never tried them but did read about them.




I have thought of that myself and wondered... . If that projectile is turned around and loaded with the open end in, would setting off the charge behind it expand the 'skirt' in the barrel as would a Minie ball?

For pig killers, I'd think they'd perform well with the open end forward (no plastic tips installed). The shape looks like it may be great for the (pre M1924) Schoenauer magazine.

Problem for me is, they're brass. Where I live, even a trace of lead is verboten while hunting. They'd have to be certified (and accepted by the legal gods) as 'lead free'.




I just googled their website and yes indeed they come with the tips to help feeding for those that need it. Or you leave them off and they have the big open point or you reverse them to use them as solids. They are solid brass machined so no problem to use them reversed and no lead so you could try some if it would help your problem. They are expensive though! My mate has used them a bit and said they work as advertised but he/we mostly use Woodleighs in PP, RN and Hydro's if we want solids as the no lead shit hasn't infested where we hunt yet!
