This video explains the difference between hard cast lead bullets and soft lead bullets. The creator details that hard cast bullets are made from a harder alloy, making them less prone to causing lead buildup (leading) in firearm barrels compared to soft lead bullets. This makes them a cost-effective and barrel-friendly option, especially for high-volume shooting. While soft lead often requires a jacket or plating to prevent leading, hard cast bullets offer a solution for this. The video also mentions that exceeding approximately 1,000 feet per second with hard cast bullets can increase leading, and that jacketed bullets generally do not cause leading concerns. The creator emphasizes the cost savings and barrel longevity benefits of hard cast bullets.
