No, as I understand it they are aregular lead bullet with a copper electroplated onto the lead. A special? alloy of some type harder than regular lead makes up the bottom portion of the bullet and regular lead the upper portion of the bullet. Theory being that the copper and the lead can not separate - therefore retaining weight and penetration - that is the part I really did not get to test... Shooting wise they shoot great.

After testing and adjusting the scope to the new load the last two shots I took were at a basalt boulder on the top edge of the rock pit. It lasered out at 151 yards. The grey splat mark that both the 300 grain and 250 grain bullets made on the the black rock were impressive.

I am really hoping to try them on a whitetail sometime before rifle season is over.
