Okay, Quail Creek, that is pretty close by to me...no FMJ (not concerned with rapid fire anyway), but what about stuff like Wolf HP? It has a steel alloy jacket over a lead core...do they do the "magnet test" looking for "steel core" which is mostly in old Soviet surplus and thus ban ANYTHING that a magnet sticks to? I'd LOVE to shoot nothing but soft tip copper clad Remington or Winchester in brass case, but that gets REALLY pricey really quick...and shooting enough for practice has the ability to rack up some real costs. Thanks for the above info, though.
You won't be given any trouble over any sort of hollowpoint. They don't do any sort of magnet test, but a RO may walk by and check your ammo/magazine. It's really no big deal. If you have something that may be misconstrued for FMJ but is actually not, just talk to Ron up at the main office first and get him to "OK" it so the RO's are on the same page.

Quail Creek is a great facility. I know some members have had some poor experiences in the past with RO's but I am there almost 3 times a week and I can promise you that the offending RO's no longer work there.
