Only if they have a safe range with a dirt backstop.
So they can shoot it without setting fire to the rest of the country that isn't already on fire.

That is actually a good price. $5.55 a box. Surprising from them.

That's a pretty great price for LC and for tracers... If I still had an AR, I'd hop right on that.

I don't think the local match director would appreciate me setting all of his cardboard targets on fire. They're so picky about that stuff.

One review of this ammo claims high pressure blew out primers. Anyone here actually tried this ammo, and if so, did you experience any problems with it?

And yes I can shoot it on my own land where there's a good clay embankment and no grass to burn.
