Is there any ammo that is on-par with Tulammo regarding cost and performance, but is steel-free? Steel ammo is banned due to fire hazard in some places which is why I ask.
>>
>Banned for fire hazard

Lol wut? I have heard of people tual because the bullets arent pure lead and i just assumed it was because it made recycling/smelting hard. But seriously, you could look into aluminum cased stuff. I think federal is putting some stuff out now
>>
>>34729667
*banning tual
>>
>>34729667
>lol wut
Steel hitting rock = sparks
if vegetation is nearby that means fire
BLM therefore bans steel ammo in some places
>>
>>34729680
>tual
You mean tulammo or is that something different?
>>
There is a difference between steel case and steel in the bullet aka this bullet attracts a magnet. Just because something is steel cased does not mean that the bullet contains steel. Gree tip t.56 could cause sparks because of the penetrator and it is brass
>>
>>34729695
Yeah i mean tualammo. All of the indor ranges around me ban steel case/bullets that attract a magnet, but the outdoor ones dont.
>>
Nevermind turns out Tulammo bullets do not contain steel

I got into an hour long argument with the RO today because he wanted to kick me out for using "steel tipped ammo". I showed him the box and told him it's steel cased not tipped. He goes "MUH sparks, MUH magnet" and I tell him to read up on it. So annoying.
>>
>>34729684
Tulammo's case is steel, the projectiles are copper jacketed lead. The case doesn't fucking fly out the barrel. The reason steel case is banned at ranges is because old surplus steel case has steel core and ro's can't be assed to actually learn a damn thing
>>
>>34729844
He got all tardy because it stuck to the magnet, he's clearly unfamiliar with how Russian ammo is jacketed
>>
>>34729784
>tfw shot Tulammo at rocks and it made sparks
If it's not steel bullets, then why? (not arguing, genuinely curious)

At Walmart can find Federal aluminum cheaper than Tula. Last month saw Perfecta (9mm/40sw) discounted cheaper than Tula. Keep your chins up OP
>>
>>34729629
I think the next step up is probably Federal, honestly. Still a little weird that there's places that ban steel ammo.
>>
>>34730190
Shitbags too lazy to sort through the brass that they are selling for scrap or to reloading companies. Fuck a double-dipping bitch who charges you to shoot then sells your brass.
>>
>>34729844
>because old surplus steel case has steel core
And newer steel cased ammo is associated with bimetal jacketed bullets, which can also cause sparks.
>>
>>34729876
Triboluminescense, if you hit two rocks together hard enough it'll also spark

Fucking fudds.
>>
>>34729629
It's banned because they can't brass Jew you.
>>
>>34729844
They are not copper jacketed, they are bi-metal meaning it is a steel jacket with a very thin copper wash over it.

I'd go shoot annoying things like Berdan primed brass, .45 with small primers, and brass-washed steel case ammo just to fuck with their shit for being such jews.
>>
>>34731437
There was some anon here that spray painted a bunch of steel case ammo gold and took it to his range.
>>
>>34729629
Perfecta is good and all brass
>>
>>34731437
not that anon, but the range near me I wanna go to checks the ammo with a magnet. And they collect all brass that isn't yours, forbidding others from using it
>>
>>34732237
lol
>>
>>34729876
Can't sell/make peofit on steel casings. Steel cased ammuniton causing fires is Fudd lore to make you buy over priced domestic target ammo.
>>
>>34731089
Tul is copper, but are switching to zinc. Not bi-metal.
>>
>>34729876
Because they can't reload it and sell it again. You think they throw all those cases that aren't picked up away?
>>
>>34729629
Federal 100 round brass 9mm is going for $20 a box at Wal Mart right now. Probably the best bang for your buck
>>
>>34735940
.20 a round for 9mm? I don't think so.

I believe Tula and some of the other cheap Slav shit has steel by product in the actual projectile, which is why it can spark and ricochet badly on indoor ranges. It can also possibly cause old powder to ignite in the bullet trap below the back of the range. It's a liability for regardless and jackasses bring steel core in quite often, so I don't blame ranges for saying No.
>>
Stop going to shitty ranges
>>
>>34729759

no shit? did you fags really think tula could sell steel penetrator ammo for that cheap?

i shoot the fuck out some tula.
