    Can I use this ammo at TSE?

    As long as it's not steel cored, you should. Doesn't say in the ad... just says 'FMJ', so hard to tell.

    When you get it, check with magnet... if it sticks, it's no good at TSE!

    As has been said, just try a magnet against the bullet. If it sticks, you're S.O.L. Outdoor shooting only.
    1 In the beginning there was the 1911, and the 1911 was good. And behold the Lord said, "Thou shalt not mess with my disciple John's design for it is good and it workith. For John made the 1911, and lo all of his firearms, from the designs which I, the Lord, gave him upon the mountain."

    From all I have heard, this should be lead core, so good to go at TSE.

    Remember, as long as it doesn't spark (steel core, steel jacket), set us on fire (incendiary, tracer), or punch through the backstop (AP), and is smaller than .50BMG, it's good to shoot in the rifle bay.

    Oh, and no black powder.

    I bought some of the MFS ammo in .308, 223 and 7.62x39mm. The bullets all stick to a magnet!
