I haven't tried the Barnes TSX or Hornady GMX, but I do use the Barnes Expander bullets in my muzzleloader. Those things really do expand like you see in the pictures and they have nearly 100% weight retention. Great bullets.

Can you get the bore clean with just a brass brush with Hoppes Number 9? I would rather not have to switch over to the aggressive high tech cleaners. They will supposedly keep attacking until neutralized. I would guess that is a very easy way to ruin a good barrel. What do you guys use?

The copper only bullets are copper on the outside just like copper jacketed bullets.
