Curious note, what is the typical composition of copper-nickel bullets? I have a friend who has a couple pails of the following:
AMPCO 45;
Aluminium (Al) 10%
Iron (Fe) 2.5%
Nickel (Ni) 5.0%
Manganese (Mn) 1.0%
Others Max. 0.5%
Copper (Cu) Balance
Description
AMPCO® 45 is a high strength alloy with mechanical properties that, due to its special manufacturing process, exceed the range of commercial nickel-aluminium bronzes.
