Are cheap factory TMJ rounds better than....

[Houndkeeper]

.......the TMJ reloads I have to buy at my range in order to observe their lead rules?

Meaning, am I better off bulk buying some low end factory loads to punch paper with? Because, aren't reloads even dirtier than factory rounds?

My range requires Total Metal Jacket rounds because of their lead policies so I have been shooting their reloads but, dang, they are dirty. Would I be better off feeding my guns cheaper brand TMJ factory loads? Horst & McCann allows you to bring your own ammo as long as they are TMJ.

Any input is appreciated.

What Caliber? I can get you a Case of Blazer which would be the least expensive and Winchester or AE.

The TMJ thing is a total bunch of crap and is just a money maker for Horst McCann... IF you can find them somewhere else, they'll probably be a lot cheaper and shoot just as well...

They will charge you more if you bring your own ammo. I refuse to go there if there system is so state of the art why can't you shoot fmj. Continental does not care what ammo you use.

.40 S&W and .380

The thing is, Horst & McCann is seriously, only like 4-5 minutes from my house. With the cost of gas and all..............

How far is Continental from the Bel Air area and do I need to be a member or have a sponser?

 

[Redneck]

dont have to be a member to shoot. might not be far if you cut across jarrettsville pike

Heather, you can shoot Jacketed Hollow Points there as well. Those can be found cheaper in a lot of cases. Watch Bass Pro and Dicks for sales.

Seriously? Hollow points cheaper than practice rounds?

 

[joppaj]

Depends on what you're getting. Some companies sell bulk hollowpoints as practice ammo.

 

[Houndkeeper]

I'll look into that, Joppa. Thanks!

Lambo, how much you talkin?

wall mart had the bulk 100 rnd of umc .40 hollow points for 30 bux a box yesterday when i was in there .

The funny thing is that 90% of the airborn lead comes from the primer, not the base of the bullet.

I'll look into that, Joppa. Thanks!

Lambo, how much you talkin?

I have the same senario I live 5 min from horst and I ended up buying the
$85 membership to keep the costs down since I go so much.
You can get cheap .40 TMJ which is $5 cheaper than Horst per box since they charge you $3 more if you bring your own you save $2 per 50 rounds
