Our Bullet Making Process
The process of crafting Berry’s Bullets’ renowned copper-plated bullets is a testament to our precision and commitment to quality. It all begins with a swaged lead core, carefully molded under high pressure. This meticulous procedure ensures an even density across the core, contributing significantly to the bullet’s in-flight stability.
Next comes the intricate process of electroplating. Here, the lead core is immersed in a copper sulfate solution. We apply an electric current and a layer of copper is stuck onto the lead core, providing a seamless copper covering with zero lead exposure. This copper plating process provides a few benefits including mitigating barrel fouling and enhancing overall bullet performance.
Once the electroplating process ends, each bullet is then re-struck. In this phase, each bullet passes through a die to meet exact specifications, such as diameter and overall length. Re-striking fortifies the bond between copper and lead core, smoothing out any irregularities that might have formed during electroplating.
Finally, we finish with a comprehensive quality check. Each bullet is closely inspected to ensure we deliver superior accuracy, dependability, and performance across every bullet. Our process embodies the commitment we put into each bullet, making sure our customers receive nothing but the best.
