A previous post flagged up the fact that some earlier Sellior and Belliot 6.5x55 bullets were steel jacketed with a copper/brass wash not sure how they make them. I have quite a lot of these bullets sitting on my shelf any opinions would you guys use them or should I bin them. I probably have 500 140grain bullets. I would be using them in a Carl Gustav Swedish Mauser.

BIN THEM??

Chuck them in a Jiffy-bag & bin them my way - happy to add them to the components I use

Quite a lot of european bullets IS of steel jacket variety & has been for some years
