This is my first cartridge pen. I used a 300 Win Mag, a slimline kit and some mule deer antler.

Now for a word about the durability of the platings: The copper plating is
much more durable than the standard gold platings. It will not wear off like
the gold plating does. It is not as durable as the titanium platings, but
somewhere in between the two. All of the copper plated pieces have been
treated to resist tarnishing, but if/when that protective layer has worn
away, they may develop a patina like a penny depending on the environment
they are used in.
My father-in-law has had a copper plated pen for over 2 months and it still
looks like new (to compare, he had a standard gold plated pen for 3 weeks
and had worn the plating completely away).
