I'm sure that they'll let you go through a magazine of Hornady Critical Duty.

Next time check http://www.ammoseek.com or sgammo.com for some well priced jacketed hollow points.

idk... they were very adamant about the brass casing only rule lol. but yea next time im there ill ask what i cant use instead of what im allowed to use.

Ermm... Hornady Critical Duty are brass casings. They do have a nickle coating.They are reloadable, nonmagnetic and won't rust. There is no good reason why a range would limit their use other than ignorance or them forcing the shooter to use the expensive range provided ammo.

see, i thought they were brass but i figured the plating would constitute them as not being brass ill just have to ask them next time im there.

A lot of folks on this site have a habit of emptying a magazine of carry ammo each trip to the range. I like the idea of each time you unchamber a round to set it aside for range use, but I am not disciplined enough in practice to keep track of something like that. Instead I just make sure that every month or so when I go to the range I shoot whatever ammo I had in my magazine first and then proceed with the full metal jacket ammo that I brought for target practice.

hmm... id end up going thru a LOT of expensive carry ammo if i shot a mag each time i went to the range. my mag has a 15 rd capacity and the ammo i buy is $22 for a box of 20.
