Here comes yet another, hopefully not stupid or unclear question.

Are there any hollow or soft point M2 Ball spec ammo available in the market?

Most ranges in my area do not allow FMJ bullets used on their rifle range.

I found no info on this on MilSurp, nor the internet, at least none that I could find. I even called my local outdoor range, but they dont know what their M1icon Garand and 1903 Springfield rifle shooting customers use at their range.

I much prefer to limit the ammo I use for my M1 Garands and 1903 Springfields to the 150 grain M2 spec powder ammo. It was my understanding that many collectors books warn that there is a potential of damage if modern powder and higher grain bullets are used on either (I am not referring to the so-called "low number '03s, and I prefer not to install the pressure regulated gas plug on my M1 Garands, but I may have to rethink that).

Is my understanding about using only M2 ball spec ammo out of date or incorrect, or am I just being too conservative about the ammo I use with these particular rifles?
