Sometimes it is cool to go to the berm and see what people are shooting.

Mostly just the normal .38, 9mm, .40 and .45 stuff

But then sometimes you find the cool stuff.

.45 (NOT ACP) and larger. Plus some smokygun balls.

9mm for comparison

I visit the berm at our range occasionally seeing the same stuff you did, but one day there was a huge lead bullet perfectly mushroomed that had to be from a classic .60 or .72 caliber.

Pretty interesting

I used to know someone who went investigating the berms at Tri-City when he was alone there. I think the most interesting thing he found was a dummy round (from a bazooka, or maybe a rifle grenade?) left over from its time as a Nat'l Guard training range, but he said people do shoot lots of interesting ammo there.
