Pick the right time and you can have the range all to your self. Great place.
Good place for target practice. Nice range in a fresh outdoor setting.
I don't have too many complaints about the range itself, but I'll leave a few comments. I like that there are multiple distances at the gun range (longer than 100 yards would be nice though), a shotgun range, and an archery range. I wish that the backstops were repaired more regularly, they use a plastic mesh held up with fence posts to hang targets on, but it gets shot up and always seems to be hard to attach paper targets to. I guess my previous complaint wouldn't be a problem if you had your own target systems to bring and set up, which brings me to my next point. I had wanted to set up some clay pigeons to shoot at the gun range, so I brought them out only to read that they weren't allowed on that range so I never used them even though I saw people on the range using them that same day. My main reason for not liking going to that range often is the people, but that's not really something the range can do about without an on duty range officer (which has never been present from my observations). It always seems like there are two extremes of people, the know it alls who are snobby and look down on every one else on the range, and the new guys who have no sense of safety and shoot across lanes, load mags with their finger on the trigger, and rapid fire at absolutely nothing. My last point is that no one really picks up their brass, even though it's a posted range rule, I guess that could be a plus for people who reload.
Facilities are bad as well. The RR tie pattern board was totally shot (sorry for the pun). Had to search for a place to screw in the support screws for the pattern paper as pistol/rifle bullets took up so much space. Against the rules btw. IMO the state should shut this place down or fix the safety issues before someone is hurt/killed.
This is an unsupervised range. One of the sketchiest places I have been to. Kid's running around unsupervised. Total disregard for posted range rules.
Best place to shoot at. A lot of room and free. Seems safer that you can see everyone around you and communicate openly.
I was patterning a shotgun and had people walking up behind me looking for used hulls. I wore my sidearm due to this places reputation, glad I did. Had no idea how bad it actually is here.
