Where are some places to get this. I am starting to reload and want to start on some cheap ammo first.

Cheap seems to be a relative term. Wideners has some.

Check out this guy. Poly Gun Bags.  I have gotten all kinds of his stuff and all has been top quality, first rate merchandise, be it bullets or storage bags.

FMJBT means it has a full boat tail bullet while the standard FMJ may be flat based or a small boat tail, usally just a flat base though.

FMJ is Full Metal Jacket

FMJBT is Full Metal Jacket Boat Tail

A FMJ bullet can be a BT design, it's up to the Mfg. to mark the product as such. FMJ just means that the bullet is covered with some kind of guilding metal. A BT design helps the bullet fly better by reducing drag.

Thanks guys. One more question. Do the black tip AP bullets trace also. My local range wont allow tracer ammo

No, black tip AP are just armor piercing.

APIT would trace or just plain tracers.
