I just picked up a nice used Lyman Plains Rifle and it came with a box of Buffalo Bullet Company .54 cal hollow point bullets. I get the feeling this rifle was used for hunting and must have been in some wet conditions at times. When I opened the box of bullets I saw they have a good bit of what looks like rust on them and a fair amount of oxidation on the lead. I wonder if that brown stuff could be bullet lube too. I know lead doesn't rust, so I guess something rusted leaked onto them. Is there an easy way to get the rust off, or should I just shoot them as they are?
