I just asked my bro' what this guy was shooting.  Seems they were both solids
as well as some AP.  The other guys on the range got pissed off when he was
shooting the AP 'cause each time he hit or nearly hit the target plate it'd
knock it right out of the ground and they'd have to go set it back up again.
:-)  From what brother remembers, the guy had to log each round fired by
serial no.
