[QUOTE="Bahick71, post: 3800096, member: 50119"] Lead bullets usually load a slower speed, for the fear of the bullet coming apart, and lead fouling the barrel. The copper plating helps hold the bullet together, and reduces fouling, so they can go a little faster. I always loaded my lead bullets below 1000 fps, I was told in a Glock, lead bullets would foul bad if any faster. [/QUOTE]
