    If I remember correctly Win-Western used to advertise the 'clean' advantage of plated vs. stcky greasey loads and not picking up grime to foul/scratch the barrel. A bit of a streach maybe but good advertising!
    You can never go home again.

      plated definately picks up a lot less crud than lubed bullets. no doubt about that.

        Actually, it is lubed - with a fairly thin coat of hard, transparent wax. Lubes the bore to reduce fouling and helps prevent corrosion on bullets during storage.

          I am given to believe that OCD is in it's self a reward and a punishment. Regards, Clark

            I'm a little confused on where the poor accurately info comes from also.
