    Default Electro plated carbine projectiles.

    A local auction site is selling some projectiles for the M1 Carbine. Unbranded they are at a good price. As a rule I buy Norma FMJ. The description on the site reads as follows.

    “Projectiles 30 Cal 110 grain RN
    These are a lead cored bullet with a electro coated copper jacket plated in place.
    These are designed for the .30 M1 Carbine.
    But also ideal for a reduced plinking .308 load for kids (to use) or small game. Use trail boss powder for best effect

    Bag of 100 $25.

    Freight - $4.50 nationwide”

    I am sure this is not your regular FMJ. Anyone had any experience with this kind of projectile?
    Is it worth a gamble?

    Is it not better to place a question mark upon a problem while seeking an answer than to put the label `God` there and consider the matter closed? Joseph Lewis
