Zinc is even lighter tham copper, so having a bullet core lighter tham the bullet jacket is a terrible ballistic combination. A monolithic copper bullet of the same shape will always be ballistically better than this, and both will always be inferior to a lead cup and core bullet.

And is it a non corrosive primer?

I’m looking for a .17 WSM rifle. Do you guys think this caliber will last long?

Thanks in advance!
