Default Need 9mm unjacketed ammo

I need target ammo for my 92FS Baretta. I am looking for RN type ammo, lead only, no metal jacket. I can't find any in local gun shops or at gun shows. I'd take either ball or wad cutter. Reloads would be fine.
Anyone have any suggestions?

From my own experiences there are some ranges that will allow only lead.

If you REALLY need lead ball 9mm, like for an indoor range, the cheapest I found are Reman. Ultramax for $10.49 a box ( http://eagleammo.com/ultramax-remanu...-125gr-lrn-9r1 ) and Magtech for $16.77 a box ( http://www.sportsmansguide.com/net/c....aspx?a=289669 ).

Thanks pacman. I have not yet been limited or questioned at the ranges I frequent. Good to know others have and that it might be wise to call before driving to a new one to shoot.

Mosin gave good referrals. I used and sold a lot of Magtech over the years and never had a problem with it.

Good luck.

Yeah one of my clubs allows only unjacketed in the indoor range. Never even shot in it once, just do all my shooting outside at that club. My other club is free to use whatever you can make go bang.
