BudsGunShop.com - Range ammo or not

The packaging says "range pack" but I hear that this ammo cannot be used on most indoor ranges cause of the damage it would cause. I'm a bit confused? Is this range ammo or self defense?

Hi Damon, it is range ammo, but it is green tip so most indoor ranges don't allow it. This popular 5.56 cartridge is also sometimes referred to as a “penetrator round” due to its 62-grain projectile, partially steel core, and enhanced ability to punch through hard targets. Green tip ammo can do a lot of damage at indoor shooting ranges that rely on steel. Not only could this ammo penetrate the steel and possibly continue traveling along its path of trajectory, but it would also do a lot of damage to backdrops, requiring that they be replaced.
Stay safe & have a great day!
