The shell around a bullet, commonly referred to as the bullet jacket, is typically made of copper or a copper alloy. This metal jacket encases the lead core of the bullet, providing structural integrity, reducing barrel fouling, and improving aerodynamic performance. In some cases, bullets may have jackets made of other materials, such as brass or even polymer, depending on their intended use.
