Berrys Hybrid Hollow Point Handgun Bullets in .45 caliber, .452-inch diameter, 230 grain, (part no. 01225) start life as a swaged lead core before Berry’s runs them through an electrolytic plating bath, where a high-grade copper ingot bonds to the lead core. The longer the bullets stay in the bath, the thicker the copper plating grows, and Berry’s pulls each batch once the plating reaches the correct thickness for this bullet.
