The practice ammo has been 180 grain truncated cone FMJ for as long as I remember (19 years now). We must have bought a gazillion rounds of the stuff back in the 1076 days.
You guys weren't the only ones who bought that 180 grain stuff. I had a retired livestock inspector in Montana give a few thousand rounds of the stuff that was taking up room in his shed. He carried a 1076 on the job. He said thay just kept shipping him ammo every quarter.

It was some dirty shooting ammo, but who knows how many Montana winters and summers it had been through in that shed.

I just wish I had kept more of the brass, but I gave most of it away. That was before I started reloading.
