Before the Barnes bullet company got into solid copper bullets, they used to specialize in pure copper jacketed lead core bullets- many of them unusually heavy for caliber. I think it was Barnes that made the 180 grain .270 and 195 grain .284 bullets.
I believe Barnes still makes some of the jacketed heavyweights- called Barnes Originals, I believe.
Barnes also was a source of FMJ bullets in all calibers, back then.
