I dont use alot of jacketed bullets in my handguns but for years I have used Speer jacketed soft point bullets for some of my .357 magnum loads.I recently got into my newest box of these bullets and they are a bit different. Compared to the older bullets,there is very little exposed lead and the bullet base is dimpled. Forgive my ignorance but this has me puzzled?
