They are pretty until you go through TSA Screening

They certainly are prettier than the old hogs tooth we got at the end of sniper school.

I realize that lead is generally pretty inert, but I guess I would have to question wearing it as jewelry at least in contact with the skin.


The collection of taxes which are not absolutely required, which do not beyond reasonable doubt contribute to public welfare, is only a species of legalized larceny. Under this Republic the rewards of industry belong to those who earn them. Coolidge

Wonder how the TSA would react? On the other hand, they probably wouldn't recognize what they are. Nice jewelry.

I have unintentionally approached TSA with component bullets without a hassle. True, they have stopped to check what they were seeing, but they haven't taken issue with plain bullets when they realize what they are. I certainly wouldn't run them on purpose however. They are intentionally arbitrary when it comes to rules application it seems.

I enjoyed your write-ups in the mauser forums, in particular the indepth write-up on your 7mm lead projectiles.

Regards.

The copper would be green pretty quickly and turn your skin green too.

My guess is that it would be sealed first, something like the clear liquid ceramic of ultra bore coat or such.

Very nice and a great idea. I would say you are getting every nickel out of your heads.

I would think there would be some way to seal the lead as a protective measure.
