I don't want to rely on the range rules as they aren't always clear. I recently was scolded at the range I frequent for shooting steel cased ammo, but the range rules didn't specify that I couldn't. The rules there state: "Frangible, tracer, armor piercing, incendiary and all other ammunition containing steel are prohibited."
Given that frangible, tracer, etc. are bullet types, I assumed (based on the context) that steel core ammo was what was prohibited. Apparently, they do not like steel cased ammo.
Given ammo prices the last few years, I have bought a fair amount of steel cased ammo (Russian before the ban, but also the Winchester stuff). Now I have a lot of ammo I can't use, unless there is a range that allows it. Given that they didn't expressly prohibit steel cased ammo, and just about everyone bans steel core rounds, I no longer trust wording that they don't allow steel ammo to mean steel core. I have to assume until I know otherwise that they will include steel cased ammo in that prohibition.
So, as asked in the title, what ranges in Central MD (preferably no more than an hour from Columbia) can I go to in order to use up my steel cased ammo?
