I rarely go there, but the bottom feeders don't come out when I do visit. I've been saving 40 S&W for a while, and will one day find someone who reloads it that I can give it toĪnother range near me has a "on the table it's yours, on the floor it's ours" policy. The 9mm gets passed along to a friend who reloads it(although only generally for his Luger now that 115gr ball has come down to reasonable levels). Occasionally, I get surprises-like 45 Colt if someone's been shooting a Judge-but also tend to end up with a lot of 9mm and 40S&W. On a casual glance, 38 Super is hard to pick out on the floor from 9mm(especially if I'm using the Starline rimless "comp" brass) so I usually just sweep everything in my lane. I load my wadcutters in wadcutter brass(it is slightly different from regular 38 special brass) and like to keep track of all of it. Specifically, I have a 1911 in 38 Super Auto-and I will chase that all over the range-and an S&W 52 that shoots a flush-seated 38 special wadcutter. I mostly shoot revolvers so my brass stays on the bench, although my two bottom-feeders are in the "valuable brass" category. They don't care if it goes in your bag/can or if it goes in their brass bucket-they just want it off the floor. My favorite indoor range is the polar opposite-they expect you to sweep your brass when you are finished(in fact if they give you a 5 min "buffer" on range fees to allow for this). I've only shot there one time and that was years ago. We have a range near where I live that won't allow ANY brass to be picked up with no exceptions.
