other than that, i'm good to go.
FMJ rifle ranges are tough to come by.

Why do you need to shoot FMJ Chris?
a lot of the weapons i have are WWII era, and the FMJ surplus ammo is not only far cheaper, but they were made to shoot the surplus. you don't typically find WWII calibers in soft point at the local sporting goods store either. i'm more of a rifle person than pistol. until you've heard that sweet, sweet sound of "PING" after an 8 round clip, or felt the brutal kick of a german mauser, then the FMJ requirement may sound silly.
I'm not sure my Garand would feed a whole clip of soft point - OTOH, I've never tried it.
