I bought some 30 caliber 150 gr M2 milsurp pull-down bullets for Garands from Widener's. The price was right...$46/1000 with shipping included.
About ten percent of them are corroded so bad they've turned green. I worked on them with a lead-away rag and they polished up OK, but now they're black. The surface seems smooth, and the jacketing is intact, but somewhat weakened, I'm sure
Maybe a dumb question, but - are these OK to shoot? I wonder about what might happen in a pressurized bore.
