Maybe some of the Hornady "zombie" bullets?

If it's tarnish you could spray some Flitz Copper Tarnish remover on them.

I bought a bunch of bullets from a guy that had quit reloading about 20 years ago, some of them had turned green, I put them in my Brass Cleaning tumbler for a Couple of hours and they looked new, you might give it a try they were Hornady .243 SP.. Rio7

The bullet is green or the tip is green?

If it's just a green tarnish shoot them, won't hurt anything.
If the surface of the bullet FEELS rough, or you question just shooting them, then tumble them a while.
If the tips are what's green, I've never seen them green either.

Good chance the OP won't answer. Has several started threads and people ask questions but no replies. Posts a question but no follow up. Makes one wonder.
