The Remington Bronze point had a tip of I guess bronze in the same manner as the current tipped cartridges like Noslers Ballistic tips and other current tipped bullets.
The Silver tip was just a thin cap over a normal lead point in place and said to protect the point. It always worked for me and killed deer just fine. Never used the Remington bullet (Bronze Point) but IIRC it was Jack O'Connor who said they either penciled though or blew up like a bomb. Never used them that I can recall so can't say if Jack was right.

Didn't Peter Hathaway Capstick write about prying the tip caps off of Winchester/Olin factory loads for shooting leopards with the 375 H&H?
