Hello Steel,

I am a little confused by your question, but maybe this will help.
The only "Punch" bullets I know of are made by Belt Mt. http://www.beltmountain.com/punch.htm

Hornady DGS is a copper clad steel jacketed solid. It is sold in thier ammunition or as a component bullet to be loaded.

Federal loads a Barnes monolithic solid in their line of ammunition. If I am not mistaken it is either solid brass or a solid brass alloy.

I am not sure about the TBSH, they do list a solid and soft point. The solid seems to be a very heavy bronze jacket around a lead alloy core and the soft point a strong bonded core.

Hope this helps.

Fusion is one of Federal's offerings that has the jacket and core "fusion bonded".

I think I would just go with Cutting Edge Bullets. There is plenty of good info on the forums supporting their performance.

TBSH is a Carter designed bullet, and, as CC stated, bronze bonded to a lead core. Excellent bullet, but, far exceeded by current monometal ballistics technology from CEB, Northfork, and GSC, to name the best of the best.

Respects,

Phill
