Not much at all. It's usually mild steel, much softer than barrel steel. Note that some ranges do not allow steel containing bullets - risk of sparks & fire in dry weather, I think.

Re: Monarch 762x39 from academy... steel jacket? Most of the MilSurp 7.62X39 has a steel jacket

Re: Monarch 762x39 from academy... steel jacket? interesting.... thanks i've been shooting for the better part of 30 years and had never run across a copper-plated steel bullet jacket, though i've never looked for it.
