no they are not

Well... In the sense that many bullets are solid lead, no, they can't be picked up by a magnet. However, many are either steel jacketed (i.e thin outer layer of steel around a lead core), or, in certain cases, are steel cored, these bullets can be picket up by a magnet.

Now, if the question was whether the bullet itself carried a magnetic charge (and, thus, acted like a magnet), the above answer is certainly true: NO, bullets are not magnetic in and of themselves.

Do wheel weights make good lead bullets for black powder guns?

Not really. Lead wheelweights can make decent bullets for modern day firearms. However, muzzle loading firearms have very shallow rifling, and need VERY soft lead bullets. Wheelweights are just too hard.

Most modern guns DO fire bullets that break the sound barrier. That is, their bullets travel faster than the speed of sound when they are fired.


Is it really true that the magnetic watch from 007 can reflect gun bullets?

Bullets are generally made of lead, with or without a jacket of gilding metal. Those are not affected by a magnetic field- only ferro-magnetic metals such as steel and iron are attacted to a magnet. And the magnet would be the size of a large truck, and needs it's own powerplant to operate it. Sorry- what looks good in the movies, and what works in real life are sometimes quite different.
