So I just picked up a can of this stuff

to shoot at my new bobcat steel. Anybody have any experience with this ammo. I was just kidding about the shooting of my bobcat steel.

I've shot my Bobcat steel with plenty of M855. It can take it.

ATM this isnt one of your pranks is it. I would be very upset if I go out tomorrow and empty a mag of this stuff through my 100% torso.

Shoot away at it, your steel will be fine

Serious ATM is serious.




(Sorry, that wink may imply that I am actually being less than serious.)




No really, I'm serious. (<---- seriously cool.)




Dang it. I give up. I can't be serious.




(It will be fine. You can trust Cwood.)

855 will wear your steel faster, especially if shot at closer ranges (<100 yds). You should expect pock marks. Those create ricochet hazards. Most competitions forbid steel containing bullets because of the damage potential.

I never shoot centerfire rifles at steel closer than 100 yds either, and always hung from the top with chain.
