To conserve lead during World War II in Germany, the lead core was replaced by an iron core encased with lead. This bullet, identified by a black bullet jacket, was designated as the 08 mE (mit Eisenkern—"with iron core"). By 1944, the black jacket of the 08 mE bullet was dropped and these bullets were produced with normal copper-colored jackets. Another wartime variation was designated the 08 sE bullet and identified by its dark gray jacket, and was created by compressing iron powder at high temperature into a solid materialComment

I'm not so sure about that. Everyone over at the Luger form says the best cartridge is Winchester White Box in 115. Or similar. And this is for all Lugers. And, in fact, they recommend against any "Plus" ammo because it can harm or even break the gun. They also said that the plus or NATO ammo was designed for a small machine gun and definitely should not be used in a Luger.Last edited by sonofeugene; 12-10-2020, 6:12 PM.Let us not pray to be sheltered from dangers but to be fearless when facing them. - Rabindranath Tagore
