sure looks like they were heated , but never poured.
This is puzzling, since Hornady doesn’t pour their cores, their bullets are cold swaged around the lead core, so it is doubtful that the bullets could be properly shaped without their cores. Then they’d be tumble polished which would deform the empty jackets.
Looks to me like someone else had the box, melted the lead out of a few bullets for some other use, then stuck the empty jackets back in the box.
