Winter is coming... Actually it’s still here!!! It’s great to see so many people out and enjoying the range this winter, our large family of shooters seem to be willing to shoot no matter the weather, and for the most part we haven’t had any problems, but we’ve had a couple. I hate to harp [...]
I had a number of emails asking for clarification about the range rules, suggestions for more rifle racks, etc. So, without further ado...

So far in 10 weeks I’ve hit 13 major matches and had some practice sessions here and there. I’ve been in 12 different countries, and the ranges have been everything [...]
It seems that summer is already here with some very warm, if not hot, days hitting us already. This will likely mean more people out at the club enjoying the ranges which means it’ s a good time to review some range etiquette. First off, when you get to the range, please sign in, [...]
