New LCW 9mm Luger ammo $179.99 per case

Is anyone in GTA want to split 1500 - rounds pack to save on shipping ?

Scroll through the accessory section of their website. I grabbed a Dlask mag for my 1911 and bumped the total to $205. Voila, free shipping.

Gotta get me some for the new sub 2k!

Ok, I am still confused about this.

What is bimetal? I get that is a metal jacket over a core.
But what metal is the jacket? It can't be steel, is it?
Like another poster said, this would ruin the barrel.

So is it copper?

Sorry, I just want to understand this.
There are lead bullets.
There are copper plated lead bullets.
So what is the core and jacket of these cartridges?

Thank you.

So what kind of quality we talking here?

Bi-metal is an alloy that contains "soft iron" and is usally copper coated. It's fine for keeping prices down. It will not harm your barrel or cause accellerated wear. Clean as you would to remove normal copper jacket fouling, as that's what the deposits will consist of primarily.

Normally, bullets of this construction are more prone to sparking on impact and can cause brush fires in dry areas if you shoot outside during hot summer days especially out west.

The core is lead so no worries there. As another poster said earlier, it's all common sense, an indoor range owner shouldn't ban those. It's not harmful to their backstops. The only actual "steel" on the bullet is a thin layer of alloy steel that's not really harder than copper. They are other brand of ammo that uses steel core, those are the one to lookout for as they can/will potentially damage indoor range backstops.

Thank you, Harry for clarifying this for me.
Much appreciated.

The trouble is, ranges have no way of knowing what is bimetallic and what is steel core so most of the ranges I know of just say if a magnet sticks to it then it is banned. Kind of a shame to lump ammo together like that but that is what is done at my range.

a pair of side cutters makes short work of the question

[Scott Bear]

So does this mean we can shoot this at outdoor/indoor ranges or is this stuff strictly for the bush?

If you have a non-restricted 9mm you could shoot it in the bush.

Is this ammo any different than your average steel cased 9mm? It seems that not too long ago Russian steel cased 9mm was $200/1000.
