I asked on another reloading site with no luck..quick questions -

1. ive noticed a couple of manufactures that have pistol/rifle ammo that use nickel plated bullets (or what seems to be nickel), but cant find any nickel plated bullets by themselves. Anyone know where to get any?

2. is there a reason why not many companies manufacture them?

3. Is there a pro or con to actually using nickel plated bullets - like bad performance, fouling, expense, etc?
