From reading below one of us is mistaken, I assumed these campro bullets were like the Speer TMJ plated bullets.

CamPro Projectiles
At the core of each projectile is 2% antimony and 98% lead. The antimony gives the projectile more ductility and allows the bullet to adjust its form to the gun barrel. Each projectile is swaged, leading to greater weight uniformity from bullet to bullet while slightly increasing the bullet density.
CamPro uses a slightly thicker copper layer to plate their bullets. This ensures that the copper coating will not be perforated or weakened during the crimping process, allowing the bullet to retain its strength and avoid splitting during firing. In addition to all this, the copper plating allows for the safe use of magnum loads and eliminates lead fouling in the bore and lead pollution in the air.
As a last step in the manufacturing process, each bullet is reformed so as to achieve consistency across the board. Many manufacturers size by forcing the bullets into a hole so that they do not exceed the maximum diameter, but CamPro bullets are reformed by pressing so that each projectile is not only acceptable, but reaches its optimal dimensions.

Our 0.008 inch thick layer copper plating ensures higher velocity and eliminates lead fouling for an uber-safe shot.
Since 1995, CamPro’s mission has been to manufacture high-end full copper-plated projectiles for discerning shooters and hunters that don’t want to compromise on quality. We consistently perfect our manufacturing and quality control processes so that our clients get the superior projectiles they need to develop their skills and unlock their shooting potential.
