San Leandro Davis Street Range question

[Creampuff]

I guess I could just wait and call later when they open, but does anyone know about the outdoor 50 yard range at the San Leandro Davis Street range can you shoot FMJ? I know on their site, FMJ is a big NO on the 100 yard range probably due to the Oakland airport. But what about the 50 yard lane?

I'll assume you can shoot 5.56 on the 50 yard? Also is it only 50 yards, or can you set up at shorter distances like 25 yards on the 50 yard lane?

thanks in advance!

I believe the rule is no FMJ rifle rounds on the outside lanes.

I haven't shot a Davis Street for some time, but I used to go there once or twice a week. When I was going there --

1. FMJ was okay on the 50 yard range.
   
   
2. The 50 yard range has target hangers at 50, 25 and 12 yards.
   
   
3. I don't know if 5.56 rifles are okay on the 50 yard range.

No FMJ allowed at all outside. They check your ammo. Last time I was there they turned away a rather large group that had AR's and AR pistols because they had Tula FMJ. Said it was because of the airport.

Just go to Chabot if you re already in the area.

Pistol calibers only (below .460) on non-bench stations.

All benches are rifle caliber only (no shotgun or pistol) no FMJ (soft point or hollow point only).

Shotgun on non-bench only allows 2.75 non-magnum slugs.

No targets with eyes and ears.

Does Davis allow Wolf/Tula hollow points? They have steel cases, but I'm not sure if they are steel core or not.

No FMJ (including brass), no steel core, no steel cased ammo (Tula/Wolf/etc.), and no tracers. They only allow brass, non-magnetic hollowpoints.

we do allow steel cased ammo, the bullet just cant be steel core (tula, wolf, brown bear, silver bear) there are some exceptions, these companies could have a match round that is not steel core.
again the case does not matter only the round itself, however it still needs to be soft point or hollow point.

Thanks for the clarification.
