Had to find a new range
Posted: Wed Oct 05, 2005 2:34 pm
The range ten minutes from my house closed down recently. The property that I used to also visit for shooting purposes is being sold. That left me with one alternative... a 40 mile drive. This is the priviately owned country range I went to today.
Cost $10 to use it. Seemed a bit high.... but when you have a monopoly, why not take advantage?
Plus side is that there is both a 100 yard and 200 yard range.
And.... the guy running the place seemed happy to see me visit and even told me thanks for coming as I was leaving. Good friendly bunch of guys at the range as well. I gave one of them directions to this site even.
The only thing I regret about this trip.... I went off and left my spotting scope on the table at home.
