    I havent tried but I would think it was ok. You can get an aftermarket barrel for shooting lead bullets. But I dont think the sjwc would hurt anything.

    Clean it once in a while (every 300-500 rounds or when you see lead building up in front of the chamber) and you will be fine.

    And no you cant fire a few jacketed rounds through it to push/clean out all the lead. All that does is jam the lead in there harder making it a monster to get out.

    I asked the guy who claims that he shoots lead all the time about this. He said the same thing. Basically said that some barrel makers tell you not to shoot brass over lead, just shoot a round with harder lead instead.
