When I was shooting cast bullet comp in the 80's with Elmer Shook, we used pure linotype, water quenched, heat treated, with gas checks. 308 Winchester caliber and Hart SS Barrels we shot cast bullets in never saw a copper jacket bullet...never.

Undersize bullets will deposit a lot of lead vapor in the barrel, and a .0005-.0015 is a very good thing on the bullet dia.over size...know the bore dia of your barrel.

Cleaning with bronze bristle brushes with FINE Bronze wool wound in the bristles is needed from time to time to remove the lead.
