If you finish reading the section on tin can ammunition, the section explains that new cases were used with the tin plated bullets. When the tin plated bullets were loaded into new cases they pressure soldered the bullet to the case neck. Weather bullets were greased or not pressures went sky high as the case and bullet became one piece.
The section also talks about finding spent bullets down range with the front half of the case still attached, this was due to the pressure soldering effect with this ammunition.
They also did a work up on bullet pull and measured how mush it took to pull a tin plated bullet out of the new cases.
