What the plated bullets are is essentially just a soft swaged lead bullet with a very thin copper plate. ..they will not allow you to push to high velocities without the worry of bore leading. With just a little chemistry knowledge you can actually make plated bullets like the Ranier and others. Stick with lower velocity loads. I have plated hard cast lead bullets in the past. Not hard work and they do make pretty...but just another bit of work that is not necessary. I had some plated bullets given to me for the 45-70 and found they were only marginally more accurate in my Microgroove rifle than cast lead
