Safety Issues at the Club

Good Afternoon Folks,

Last Friday we inspected the Range Separation wall between the 50 and 100.  We found very disturbing indications that people had shot the wall.  Not only had they shot the wall, but one round impacted the very top row about 18″ from the end of the wall.  It would not surprise me that rounds left the 50 and landed on the 100m range!  I shouldn’t have to tell you how dangerous this is.

I implore you to follow the rules and not shoot to the right of the white arrow on the 50 yd range!  Someone’s life may very well be at stake.  We did not make this rule for the heck of it.  There is a reason for it.

While I was there we also noted that a 50 yard target frame was in the 25 yd position.  To be fair the target frames are not labeled, however the 25 yd target frames are much taller than the 50 yd target frames.  If you use a 50 yd target frame at the 25, you may very well be shooting the ground.  PLEASE be mindful of which target frames you are using and where your rounds are impacting.

Our safety at the club depends on all of us at all times.  Please help by doing your part

The Board is investigating the range separation wall hits.

Respectfully,

Scott Sampson
Chief Instructor
ASC # 762
