Wondering if anyone put these down range? I put a few through my glock, and it left some weird marks in my barrel. I'm just paranoid about the issue because the bullet isn't totally enclosed, even though it seems unlikely that it would leave lead in my barrel....I'm just paranoid...
 
The win clean 180BEB should be fully enclosed, that's the whole point.

Well the flat nose is lead..brass enclosed base

I stand corrected.... it does have an exposed lead nose or something that looks like it, seems weird given the type of ammo it is.

Regardless, I doubt it's doing the gun any harm. By streaks, do you mean copper streaks? All jacketed ammo will leave at least some traces of copper in the rifling over time. Nothing to get worked up about, although you can use varying cleaners to get rid of it, if you really want to.

It does not look exposed, but its a brass enclosed BASE
