Yeah, but sometimes ya gotta buy the new stuff.
Well, I was going to take a training class at one time. They didn't allow anything but factory loads and then only high end stuff, no Wolf or Tula, etc. That was a mid level course and it required 600 rounds of factory....and no, you can't keep your brass, either....I asked.
I never got around to taking the course. At the time, my best piece was my G36 and so that was what I was going to take it with....now I have two better 9mm's that will get the nod should I ever do the course. MUCH cheaper.
It is for liability reasons, that many if not all instructors require quality factory ammunition. If you would get hurt in there class because of sub par, or self reloaded ammo they would be to blame.
