      Alpine is pretty strict about no full metal jacket rifle ammo at all. I'm pretty much a regular out there and they still check mine. Doesn't matter if it's penetrator ammo or not, no FMJ of any kind. And buy your ammo elsewhere, their prices are ridiculous!

        This.

        Every time I'm there, they inspect the ammo. Last time I was there the guy saw the WOLF boxes from a distance and said "Hey, you can't use that". I told him it was Wolf hollow point and he came over to see for verification. Once he saw it was hollow point, he told me it was OK to stay and shoot.

          So I'm new to all this stuff. Steel core is that the tip of the bullet or the casing?

            It's steel core. If you had to guess, what would you think?

                If it's hollowpoint, it's fine. They don't make hollowpoint that is also penetrator, it would kind of be an oxymoron.
                Hang on to at least one of the boxes to show them, just in case there's any question.

                    It depends on what he bought.

                    There is a 55gn FMJ/55gn HP and 62gn FMJ/62gn HP.
