				<title>Bullet question</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ I would imagine this one will be easy for the American posters <img src="/s/i/a/c944477abc92c1c101da485e07ff06d8.gif" border="0"> I've knocked up some 3d MP40  9mm parabellum bullets and need some help on colours. The reference pictures I've found show them as being one colour, which I'm assuming is brass. I thought that the shell would be brass but the actual projectile part would be lead. Am I right / wrong or it could be either?]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Yes the shell casing is typically brass, with some manufacturers using a steel, most notably the Russians.  The bullet is lead, but usually coated in a copper or sometimes brass or bronze mixed metal.  This is the "full metal jacket".<br /> <br /> Hollow point bullets are jacketed with copper/brass/bronze as well, except at the very top where the divet is you can usually see the lead.<br /> <br /> Pretty much any variation is acceptable, and will be accurate to what exists.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Yeah, FMJ rounds will be completely coated in copper.  Soft tips will be mostly coated in copper, but a portion of the tip will be left clear of it, so that it can mushroom out when it impacts causing more damage.  Hollow points work on a similar design, but come either soft tipped, or full jacketed.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Thanks guys. Explains why the pictures I'd seen showed a complete bullet in a brass / copper colour.]]></description>
