I don't get leading from shooting my cast lead bullets, so plated bullets have no benefit for me. I can also push my cast lead bullets faster than plated can go without the plating coming off. I understand that there are some who just don't like cast bullets, and some guns that don't like them either, and that's fine--the plated bullets give them an option that's a little cheaper than conventional jacketed bullets.
However, the idea that shooting cast lead bullets always results in a leaded barrel is just ridiculous.
