Hey Bob this sounds like a comparison test for a guy we know! A gel test for Petey308. I wonder if he has ballistic gel?The lead has to be alloyed (tin) to make it harder.
It would melt the lead core to lay level with gravity in the jacket. The jacket needs to be visually red (700-900°F) when heating, way above lead melt temps. Delicate dance with heating with eyes governing the "red" hot color of copper unless it is controlled better. Seems like a pain to do cup and core bullets this way.
