I proceded to dump 100 rounds of it as smooth as the other brass cased I brought.
I had a similar scenario when I was buying the stuff at academy.
At an indoor range I frequent they swipe all your ammo with a magnet and have signs posted everywhere that there's a $25 fine if your caught smuggling in steel cased ammo. I asked why the policy the guy told me 'it damages our machines' with an angry twitch in his eye...whatever that meant.
I don't know why there's such an adversion towards steel cased 'commie ammo,' seems to work fine for me, just smells bad when you shoot it.
I have never worked behind the scenes at an indoor range, but I imagine they derive a certain amount of revenue from recycling spent brass that shooters leave on the floor. If I were you I'd find a different range.
