[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Steel Jacket or Copper Jacket

Posted: 7/25/2008 8:46:33 AM EDT

German 7.62x51 with a steel jacketed bullet
or
Lithuanian 7.62x51 with a copper jacketed bullet?
or
does it really matter?

Seems the steel jacket would wear the bore more than the copper.

Thanks,

The jacket on the German ammo is 'mild' steel, not going to hurt your barrel whatsoever.

I was initially leary about the steel jacket ammo but it was accurate,reliable and didnt ruin the bore.
