Will marksdwarves use ammunition in bins?

I remember they used to refuse to. In 31.25, do marksdwarves use ammunition in bins?

They could use bin just fine in earlier versions, if all of the ammo in said bin was made of only one material, such as all bone, all iron, etc. At least that's my experience as of .18. I do believe that mixed-ammo bins bug have been fixed, though.

 You will still get the equipment error message occasionally, but they will use them in bins. The old bug was basically the problem of using 1 type of bolts for combat,and one for training.
