+1 what rpenmanparker said.
Except most indoor ranges forbid it.
ALL of the ranges by me (South Florida) do not allow for steel cased ammo.
I'm not quit sure why that is exactly and I never asked.
However they (gun ranges) always ask me, "What are you shooting today?"
I tell them Brass and they say good.
If that is not what they are talking about they would say, No, we don't care about the casing just if it's ...steel core ammo.
Trust me down here it's ALL about what ends up on the floor not down the range.
I could take a picture of their sign next time i'm there.
Maybe they pick up all of the old Brass casings to sell or reload and don't want to pick out the steel casings.
Also look out for ammo sales!
You just missed a
BIG one from Federal for their "American Eagle"
25% off per box or bulk sale.
I bought 2,500 rounds of American Eagle 124g FMJ $500.00 (free shipping)
I received $125.00 in rebate checks.
So, do the math, that's 2,500 rounds for $375.00
That comes out to $7.50 per box of 50 / 15 cents per round.
That's the numbers I like going to the range on.
If I shoot 300 rounds that's $45.00 + Range cost: $15.00 = $60.00 day!
That's my hobby and Enjoyment!
Less than Golf and more than Bowling (depending on how much you eat & drink..LOL)
And neither one Could Save your Life..Well maybe a Golf Club or you could throw a bowling ball at your assailant!
LOL / ROFL Sometimes I knock myself out!
Before
that Remington "Green" box was on sale.
What big ammo sale will it be for this year I don't know.
The Federal Ammo promotion ran from July to December 31st. of last year!
I'm good to go for awhile but I always keep my eyes open.
Lastly when a sale occurs it is usually shouted from the rooftops, somewhere in here!
