When the home Office Inspector of ranges, ors the person deputised by him to act on his behal, states that projectiles used in XYZ range are limited to lead, that is exactly what is mean. Lead. Bust. BTW, a gas check on a bullet makes it unusable on and indoor range.
Also, at the price of propellant powder here in UK, most folks try very hard to limit that amount they buy and try to find one powder that will do all the things they want to do I found that 4064 does for most every calibre that I shoot except for .45-70 Govt, .44 BP or .58cal Enfield or Snider.

The indoor range which I use has a safety certificate which makes no mention of projectile composition. In Pistol calibres we allow jacketed.......(provided MV and ME limits are not exceeded)....and some use gas checks (beats me as to why though).
True freedom includes the freedom to make mistakes or do foolish things and bear the consequences.
