Solid copper 22lr

[gfol70]

Anyone know if it's possible to buy solid copper (not plated) .22lr ammo? If so - where?

Cci has some lead free offerings. But doubt it is all copper.

I've bought copper plated round nose but have never seen solid copper bullets

if the were solid copper, they would cost a fortune... people mostly shoot rimfire for economy (excluding the precision sect)... would not be a big seller.

Shoot them (rabbits, grouse, etc) in the head then it wouldn't matter what you use unless you eat the head also

Trying them out for ballistics - see if a difference.

You can get lead free, that is about your only option....
Made from Tin in the Winchester variety...not sure how much healthier that is.
