Default Elm Fork clarification

I am also searching for a place to shoot my new ar-15. I called Elm Fork in Dallas and said there is some confusion about the issue, and they told me fmj is allowed, but only on the 25 yard range. It seems that the best idea is to join a private club as mentioned before, but that seems like such a hassle because of the application process.

It might be a good idea to get that reloading equipement and start saving money on hollow point ammo just so we can afford to shoot at public ranges.

I'm just getting back into the one thing I have always enjoyed and that is buying and shooting C&R classified rifles and I feel like a kid turned loose in toy, candy, or whatever store I'm estatic. However, I'm finding out a lot things have changed since I was derailed; the outragous price for C&R's and the abundance of FMJ and the limitation of it's use. So, after saying all this would someone explain to me how a range can determine military FMJ and non-military FMJ? I have read somewhere that ranges use a magnet. Now, if it's FMJ mil or non-mil wouldn't the magnet attach to it? Please explain.

You ought to start your own thread for a better and fresh discussion.

This one was 6 months old and moldy.
