Silver bullets
So, I've been re-reading my various Patricia Briggs werewolf books, and
one of the recurring micro-themes is various characters whining about what a crappy material silver is for bullets, because it's too hard. So -- has anyone who's done reloading also handled pure silver, that hasn't been alloyed with whatever to make it hard enough for jewelery or silverware? Is it really too hard to make decent ammunition from? Would a hollow-point silver round fail to fragment nicely? (I'm not going to have silver bullets in my survivalist kit -- I'm just wondering, from a practical standpoint, if the claim about silver being too hard is really true, or just un-educated author bullsh**). -- www.wescottdesign.com |
