First if all, sorry it's so long.
Reloading! In particular talking about cast bullets. So because we're talking about cast bullets hardness comes into effect depending upon the firearm. I got to wondering, if it's necessary to powder coat a hardened bullet for, say, a 9 mm fired out of a handgun, let's say Glock 19.
Now I'm wondering, if I need to make 9 mm even harder if it's being fired out of a carbine.
So for you guys who have experience in reloading what are your thoughts and experiences? Do you need to harden a pure lead powder coated bullet? Can you fire a alloy bullet of the same caliber which has been hardened such as through quenching?
If you're worried about me plagiarizing you, I am required to cite my sources in my assignments.
