Aren't they hard on lead or not supposed to shoot lead bullets ??
Doesn't seem to have ever been an issue.
Quite a difference in pressures involved...
I think you need to weigh in on the Glock barrel mention for the same reason.
"My message to my troops is if you see anybody carrying a gun on the streets of Milwaukee, we'll put them on the ground, take the gun away and then decide whether you have a right to carry it." - Milwaukee Police Chief Ed Flynn
Didn't realize anyone shot lead bullets in ARs. Had not heard that though about lead and poly rifling...
Always wanted to try it. 5R and standard works so good though, why break it if its working....
There are a few who persue such endeavors. Some for the challenge and for frugality. I haven't taken the 22 cast plunge yet, but might one of these days.
