Hey Lou..
I have used this bullet in several of my carbines. I also was cautious about the lead getting into the gas port. Anyway after a thousand or two using these cast bullets I decided to open the gas piston up. Couldn't find much if any leading caused by the bullets. Interesting anyway. Good Luck.
