This range is the place to site in new firearms, test fire your weapons, set up your scope or just shoot some paper targets out to 137 yards.There is also a 12” gong in the Northwest corner that will test your accuracy.This range is dedicated to the use of rifles, pistol caliber carbines, and shotguns using the available patterning board. We haveseven covered shooting lanes, 6 with concrete benches and 1 with wood benches.All are covered. Target stands, cardboard backers and staple guns are in the shed.Chairs, stools, trash cans, port-o-johns, and buckets for clean-up of brass are all on-site and readily available.
