Anyone else heard of this?
Please note that the OP does not say that the LEO had a problem with the fact that the ammo was reloaded, but that the bullets were lead as opposed to jacketed. I called my friend who lives in Iowa and has a CCW. He said that to his knowledge Iowa has no restrictions whatsoever on the type of ammo one can carry for SD.
