Default Recovered bullets

Anybody ever recover bullets? We were out at our range yesterday and I recovered one of the bullets from my 300wm. I found the bullet in a cross brace of our backstop after it had gone through 1/2" plywood, and 2 2x4s. It actually shed it's lead core. Other than a little grey residue on the jacket, there was no trace of the core. I thought the lead core was pretty much there to stay. I don't consider it a bullet failure considering it went through 4 inches of wood, just thought it was kind of funny, and wondering if anybody else had seen the same type of thing.
