Answering questions bullet jackets from copper tubing caps. This process makes jacketed slug with covered nose. With heavy soft jacket as opposed to a solid turned slug from solid rod or soft lead slug.
1/2" caps can make .700 and 12ga size jackets. 5/8" caps can do 8ga and maybe 10ga jkts. And 3/4" caps can make 4ga. These cups are malleable enough to shape into jackets, without a 20 ton stamping press.
